Sweat Club

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Sweat is a club night and has been running for the last 14 years in Birmingham. Sweat is known for playing Funk, Original R&B, Jazz, Acid Jazz, Blue Note, Salsoul, Disco and a little bit of Northern Soul thrown in for good measure.
At Sweat you will not hear Drum & Bass, House or any hip hop from muscle bound gold chain wearin' Mo fo's who swear a lot. Sweat is about having a good time. Sweat is about dancing and letting your hair down.
