Margate Soul Weekend started with Eli Thompson of The Westcoast Bar and Venue & DJ Micky B (East Kent Soul Connection), who back in August 2002 at the Margate Carnival on Sunday decided to bring their mutual love for soul music to the masses.
They set up decks outside the forecourt of the bar on Fort Hill and played a mix of classic soul motown and rare grooves which was the start of something special for Margate.
