Vinyl-only Mod and Soul club night with resident DJs Sean Chapman and Andy Hill, with a guest DJ, at the former warehouse venue Social.
Chills & Fever Mod Club returns to Social on Saturday 17 April, one of two dates they're running in the city this year. It's a vinyl-only night rooted in the Mod and Soul underground, and the music doesn't stop at one sound: you'll hear Mod, Northern Soul, R'n'B, Latin, British Beat, Jazz and Ska, all played from records. Resident DJs Sean Chapman and Andy Hill run the night, and they bring in a guest DJ for each date.
There's a bit of history to the name. Chills & Fever started in 2017 as a twice-yearly Saturday night at the Hertford Corn Exchange, run by Chapman and Hill, both long-standing selectors across the UK. When lockdown shut the dancefloors, they kept it going with weekly broadcasts on Mixcloud, and once things opened back up, they took it on a Thames river cruise and ran Sunday Sessions in a 15th-century cellar bar in Ware. With Andy and Carole now based up north, the night has relaunched as a twice-yearly fixture at Social, run by the same team with Carole Peacock and Michelle Chapman working behind the scenes.
Social itself is a former warehouse on Humber Street in the Fruit Market, the independent part of town. It opened in 2010 as Fruit and was reborn as Social in 2020, and it holds around 300 people. Smart dress is encouraged, and Mod-influenced style is more than welcome if that's your thing.
