RARE soul is promised at the New Variety Club in Keighley on April 8.

Local soul music fans are hosting the second bi-monthly gathering at the Russell Street venue.

The event, which runs from 8pm to 1am with a late bar, will feature soul and Tamla Motown music from the 1960s up to the present day.

David Shackleton, one of the organisers, said: “We play the original records that were released at the time of production, American and British rare pressings spun by rare soul DJs."

Guest DJs are Andy Carling and Jeff Kidd who run the Wetherby Soul Club.
