Give It Some! has been running for five years at The Bongo Club in Edinburgh and is launching a new monthly night in London this autumn. In Edinburgh, it's monthly on a Saturday night and it gets hot and sweaty as DJRed6 digs around his box of 45s for a fine selection of Funk, Soul, R&B and Jazz to keep the feet moving! Decoy Roy keep things irie in the upstairs lounge selecting Reggae, Roots, Ska & Dub.
London's incarnation of Give It Some is a bit stop-start at the moment while we get used to the city and find the right venue. Keep an eye on the diary for dates, though you'll no doubt get a heavy noise up on the old bulletin boards too!
