First Copenhagen Soul Weekender, Aug 24-27, went by toooo fast! We are so amazed at the fab crowd that turned up from all over the world, the three talented guys behind the idea (John Berchtold, Ash Pederick – who designed the amazing poster – and Andreas Beraha), and the cool venues the events took place in. A great start for a festival that already got so much soul!
We had a fab night as NYC-based dj Sheila B. made a stop in Copenhagen on her European tour, invited by John Berchtold to Mesteren and laerlingen. She made the Danish crowd go crazy by spinning some stunning tunes from her vast collection! Great meeting her and getting the opportunity to bring her a little Swedish souvenir: Sylvia Vrethammar’s cover of Son of a preacher man in Swedish. It was later played by Sheila on her amazing radio show at wfmu.org We loved your set, Sheila!
Last Tequila Twist for this year! Join me and Morticia for a special edition Tequila Twist Jungle Bells X-mas party at Moriskan. This time with legendary John Berchtold from Copenhagen as our guest Santa, bringing you his wild and raw r’n’b and r’n’r vinyl collection! Crazy dancing all night, surprise movie and simply the best music you ever (or never) heard! What a way to kick-start the holidays!
