Now in their nineteenth year as the UK's leading Northern Soul band, THE NORTHERN SOULTRAIN arrive back in Carlisle with their big soul shakedown party promising the hottest soul night around.... and this Lancashire based, nine piece freight train of a band are showing no signs of slowing down as the group continue to perform at festivals, dance halls and theatres around the UK.

Fronted by their charismatic and energetic lead singer David John Jaggs, the group also present the sounds of the 'Union Pacific Horns' and one of the tightest and driving rhythms sections currently on the soul scene!

"Our show is all about dancing and we just can't wait to bring the party to Carlisle for the very first time in 2026!" - Ian Barnes (guitar)

THE NORTHERN SOULTRAIN will be playing live, the very best soul anthems from Wigan Casino, Twisted Wheel and Blackpool Mecca. Great songs by Dobie Gray, Frank Wilson, Al Wilson, Julien Covay, Billy Butler and many more. Throw in just a pinch Motown and we have a new look Northern Soul stew served up by Lancashire's very own 'THE NORTHERN SOULTRAIN!'

Additionally the band will be supported by DJ Ed Lawford who will be spinning the vinyl and playing soul classics before and after the band performances.

A cabaret show this is not, this is an authentic soul party!
