Penarth Soul Club was established in September 2014 by Shelley Barrett and Liam Curtin as a bi-monthly club night at Penarth Ex-Servicemen’s Club. The night continues to draw people from far and wide and continues to grow from strength to strength. We play a varied mix of soul music on vinyl from the 1960s and 1970s drawing on labels such as Tamla Motown, Stax, Atlantic, Chess and Invictus.  We also play Northern Soul. We play a mix of familiar and obscure records but always something to dance to.

Rudie Can't Fail was established in February 2015 by DJs Liam Curtin, Private Britton and Baz.

They have provided DJ support at gigs by many ska and reggae artists including The Skatalites, Toots and the Maytals, Lee 'Scratch' Perry, Horace Andy, The Selecter and The Beat. Liam also DJ's every year at the London International Ska Festival. On the Rudie Can't Fail radio show Liam plays  a unique mix of ska, rocksteady, reggae and 2 Tone all from vinyl.

Our well meaning but essentially ignorant host is on a mission to introduce everyone in Penarth to everyone else and play some relevant music with the proud motto, “Like Radio 2, only less offensive”.  He chats to people about their connection to Penarth, what they do, that sort of thing, and plays the music they want to hear, so long as they answer a quiz question correctly.  There's also something about The Book of Penarth.  One reviewer called this show, “a … bit… okay… could be… off.”  Another review is still the subject of legal action and we cannot comment at this time. If you're one of the very few specially selected website users who has a red button below saying "READ MORE", congratulations!   See if you've won either (a) literally a million pounds! or (b) a list of, and links to, the shows so far!  

The Playlist is going to troll through Andrew's Playlist (funnily enough), what’s on his shelves at home and also what new gems he discovers.

Acoustic Club is a roots, folk/blues and Americana show, based on the sort of music featured at the live Penarth Acoustic Club, which normally runs on 3rd Friday of every month, with some poetry/spoken word thrown in for good measure. Phil and Ade have run the live club for the last 6 years featuring touring international and local guest musicians, and visiting poets who normally do two short sets each month to complement the music.Hopefully our shows, presented alternately by Phil one week and Ade the next, will represent a good cross-section of the acts who have performed for us over the years, and also music from the wider folk/roots community.Please let us know if you enjoy the show (or don't!), and send us feedback/requests/suggestions via email to acousticclub@penarthsounds.co.uk, or via the PenarthSounds website or social media.

Fun party vibes regardless of genre! Stacey wants to get you moving with music, projecting her passion through the airwaves.
