A new festival celebrating soul, jazz, funk and gospel music is to take place in February.
Soul music - along with a bit of jazz, funk and gospel - is to have its first dedicated festival in Northern Ireland, called Soultrane."The music that traditionally has come out of Northern Ireland is also a type of soul music," said Ms Brown."Soul covers a lot of sub genres - you've got neo-soul, rare groove, hip-hop, disco soul, Northern soul," she told BBC News NI.
"Northern Ireland is rapidly becoming more multi-cultural and as we've had more people of black origin this music is becoming stronger and stronger in the community." "The music that comes out of Northern Ireland, traditionally has come out of Northern Ireland is also a type of soul music and it's why I think all of these musicians really connect deeply with each other," she said.
