About This Event

Curated by writer and broadcaster Stuart Maconie, the Northern Soul Prom is here to get you on your feet. With new orchestral arrangements by Joe Duddell and Fiona Brice, this stomping celebration of British club culture brings a symphonic edge to the beats that took English towns across the industrial North and Midlands by storm in the 1960s and 1970s. What began as a celebration of forgotten American soul B-sides became a euphoric release at all-night dances for factory workers. Some of the classic tracks bering performed include 鈥榊ou鈥檙e Gonna Make Me Love You鈥�, 鈥極pen the Door to Your Heart鈥�, 鈥業t Really Hurts Me Girl鈥�, 鈥楬old Back the Night鈥�, 鈥楾ime Will Pass You By鈥� and 鈥楯ust Like the Weather鈥�.
