He is a regular attendee of nights up and down the country and is passionate about promoting ‘This is Northern Soul’ in Northants and beyond! The Music & Sound; Jem & Len’s era’s on the scene started at different times but also crossed over. Jem started his journey in the 1970s ‘Golden era’ of Wigan Casino etc. while Len Started out during the ‘Second wave’ 100 Club etc. during the late 80s/ early 90s. So musically they are inspired by those times. Predominately you will hear most of Northern Soul tunes you know and love at the event but also be prepared to be pleasantly surprised by some inclusions in the DJ sets. We will also feature specially selected guest DJ’s that fit in with our ethos of entertaining the crowd and importantly keeping the dance floor busy!
