Description
The New York Night Train Soul Clap and Dance-Off is the 21st Century’s most popular and prolific soul party - by far playing to more people in more places than any other. Occurring hundreds of nights around the world since 2007, the Clap features hours of dancing to the rare original soul 45s of NYC DJ legend Jonathan Toubin and includes a dance contest in the middle determined by a jury of notable judges. The iconic party isn’t only one of New York’s most distinctive, popular, and enduring recurring wingdings, but has occurred at a spectrum of major music festivals and special events in over a hundred cities on five continents worldwide. The Clap is the first dance party with its own night at Lincoln Center’s prestigious Midsummer Night’s Swing, the first dance party with an entire dedicated night at South By Southwest (becoming the festival’s official annual closing party for nearly a decade), and the only party with its own compilations on the classic Norton Records imprint - with five sold-out internationally released volumes of the Souvenirs of the Soul Clap LP series. The city of New York has put on a number of free outdoor editions of the party - including 2019’s Summerstage presents Soul Clap and Dance-Off Live Revue at Coney Island’s 5,000-capacity Ford Amphitheater live performances by Irma Thomas, Archie Bell, Joe Bataan, Betty Harris, and Ronaldo Domino accompanied by a full live band and of course Toubin’s dance contest!
