What is Northern Soul?

Northern Soul is a music and dance movement that emerged in Northern England in the late 1960s. It revolves around rare American soul records from the mid-1960s to early 1970s – typically obscure tracks with a fast tempo, emotive vocals, and strong beat, often released by lesser-known artists on small independent labels. The scene grew around iconic clubs like the Wigan Casino, Manchester’s Twisted Wheel, and the Blackpool Mecca, where dancers would spin, shuffle, and backflip through the night to forgotten soul gems.

To this day, Northern Soul lives on through a dedicated global community, keeping the spirit alive with allnighters, original vinyl, and a deep love for the sound.
