Covers for a Cause: Motown Edition

Classic toe-tappers and sweet, fizzy Soda Factory concoctions — all in aid of local youth. It'd be rude not to.

Overview

Ah, The Soda Factory — that haven of the hot dog, mismatched vintage furnishings and grown-up ice cream floats. Continuing their tradition of livening up your weeknights with events put to soundtracks from bygone days, the next offering in their quarterly Covers for a Cause series pays homage to '60s icon and source of bouncy, poppy, toe-tapping soul, Motown Records.

Previously, Covers for a Cause has honoured Amy Winehouse, Fleetwood Mac and The Beatles. Each time round, the Soda Factory chooses a different local charity and donates a gold coin to that good-doing organisation whenever you order a food or drink item. This time your dollars will be going to Youth Off The Streets, a community organisation that has been working with Sydney's homeless (or otherwise disadvantaged) young people since 1991.

It's a plenty good excuse to eat and drink up, and bop along to Soda Factory regulars' interpretations of Motown classics. We do love a side of philanthropy with our Wednesday night entertainment.
