Hipshaker is a 60s club night.
Hipshaker started in 1998 and has hosted nights in Portsmouth, Basingstoke, Southampton, Bognor, Ryde and London. We currently run events in Portsmouth and Ryde in the UK and have an upcoming date in Bournemouth in December 07 @ the Wave 105 "Colossal Christmas Cracker of a Party".
We also run a weekend of events at the annual Isle Of Wight Scooter Rally ..... the biggest scooter rally in the world.
We hosted The Hipshaker Lounge at the 2006 AND 2007 Isle Of Wight Festival (see video clips above) ..... and hope to be back there in 2008!
At any Hipshaker event you can expect to hear funk, soul, jazz, rock, r&b, motown, latin, ska, reggae etc etc ...... all from the 60s and all on chunky vinyl!
We have released a compilation album on Goldmine/Soul Supply and are looking to release a follow up.
September 1:st our 1:st single, Dare To Lick (Hunter's Red Sleeve), from our upcoming album SILENT REVOLUTION,was released and is available on iTunes but also on our MySpace of course!
The album will be released October 1:st and later that month we go on tour in Germany with The Movements.
Hope you can make it.... We are also staging our album celebration/ launch party in central London on SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 12th. Tickets are £12 for an amazing one-off show!
Announcing the addition of 9 sneaky previews of tunes from the forthcoming dc fontana album "six against eight" are now up on our my space page for your delectation plus a snippet of the lack of afro remix of our forthcoming single "the contessa"......from our art to your soul..... Please do stop by and have a quick listen to these snippets (all works in progress) and let us know what you think won't you?
The 50th anniversary of Tamla Motown in January has focused minds again on just how great their 1960s output was. Meanwhile the lynchpin of their great rival Stax down in Memphis - Booker T - is out and about promoting a new album. This music never goes away, and audiences always move their feet to it. This life-affirming soulful wave of Black Dance Music came to define the best that pop can offer. Grown men and women still go dewy-eyed at the mere thought of those hits.
And so do we, so we’ll be playing the best in Tamla Motown, Stax Records, club soul, & girl group songs from the period, all off original vinyl 45s. Your wax spinners on June the 5th will be Smart Phil & Mickee.
Come down and celebrate the beat, in a fabulous bijou West London bar that’s a doddle to get to and from. Double Shots all round!
Sat 16th May @ The Soup Kitchen, Spear Street, Manchester.
The Centrifuge @ Futuresonic Festival present Richard Devine, Puzzleweasel, NeuTek vs Boombots, missaw, Guide, Gareth Clarke, Mr Underwood & His MIDI Octopus and Scrubber Fox.
