Looking forward to what will be our final night of the year and what a year it’s been! Reiterating the musical ethos of the much loved and much missed LOWTON CIVIC HALL soul nights, CULCHETH has strived to maintain a focus on quality sounds, with a mix of rare, underplayed and classic original records and so this year along with a small number of other venues has, in our opinion, kept to the traditions and expectations of the rare soul scene and its loyal followers. Mentioning a number of other venues following the values of the scene, one such venue is Ashton Ukrainian Club. This year has also seen Ashton consolidate its place in the North-West soul calendar as a ‘must-visit’ event and so it’s with great pleasure that we announce a joint promotion between ASHTON and CULCHETH on December 7th. DJ’s on the night, representing ASHTON will be two of the driving forces of Ashton’s success, SIMON INGHAM and MICK HOWARD and representing CULCHETH will be resident DJ’s KEV MURPHY and BAZ MALEEDY, adding to the line up for the night will be special guest, CULCHETH and ASHTON regular, and resident DJ at RUGBY, SWINTON all-nighters and Rare Soul Bol Weekenders, DAVE RIMMER! There is no doubt, this will be a real CHRISTMAS CRACKER, so get it in the diary for SATURDAY 7th DECEMBER!

Getting closer to the source now... The weekend and Saturday almost on us, time for another GEM from Ady Potts box! Totally underplayed due to the lack of copies out there, so makes it worthwhile to lend an ear... Ladies and Gentlefolk we give you; Miss Vivian Jones

Sooo good to see this wonderful record finally taking its place on Northern / Rare Soul dancefloors after being a bit of a sleeper, a CULCHETH featured spin but one that fits the GRUMPY bill...

20241005_235030.mp4 So, something that came from a brief conversation many months ago, on the lines of “Carl’s coming over to the UK first weekend in October, do you fancy putting him o at CULCHETH?” Well, as I knew Carl from his guest sets at TUFF LOVE SOUL WEKENDERS and DAB of SOUL WEEKENDERS to name just a couple, I thought, Yeh, great idea. So from that it grew into a STOCKHOLM SOUL COMES TO THE NORTH-WEST format with Carl doing THE SHIRT CLUB, Friday, CULCHETH Saturday and CAN YOU DIG IT on Sunday, so anyone and everyone could have a chance to come along on any of the events to suit them. I’m please to say a great crowd came along to CULCHETH to witness our guests BOB SPENDLOVE and CARL HEDBERG play fantastic music to a very appreciative crowd. If you were there, you will have witnessed first-hand, pure enthusiasm and joy from a guy playing the music he obviously loves…If you weren’t there, sorry, but you missed a cracker! Rarities mixed with cheapies, classics mixed with underplayed gems, it had it all… Just a few of the comments from the night… “Carl H, The best set of 2024” “A super night at Culcheth” “Musically, top notch” “Soul gems, one after the other, throughout the evening” “Quality tunes are part and parcel of this venues’ continuing success” Thanks to everyone who came along on Saturday, you really do make the difference and make it all worthwhile! 20241005_234927.mp4
