“Northern Soul was and is one of the most thrilling and vital music subcultures ever'
Between 1973 and 1981, Wigan Casino was the place to be if you wanted to dance along as the latest tracks were spun from the decks.
Kicking off at 6pm on Saturday and running until 8pm on Sunday , the night will feature a special Northern Soul edition of The Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show alongside a broadcast of Stuart Maconie’s Northern Soul Prom, which was recorded at the Royal Albert Hall in July. Kicking off proceedings on Saturday from 6pm to 9pm, Craig’s Funk and Soul special will feature a ten-piece soul house band – The Signatures – and special guests including Wigan Casino DJ Richard Searling and all-female R&B group The Flirtations. Craig will also be going in search of the rarest Northern Soul record, which was recently sold for £100k.
“Stuart Maconie’s Northern Soul Prom was a triumph at the Royal Albert Hall, which was filled with joyous singing and dancing. I’m delighted to be able to share it on 6 Music as part our celebration of Northern Soul.”
