09/10/24 • 86 min

Join us for episode 8 of If These Walls Could Talk as we discuss a venue that holds a very special place in London folklore. A space that has been gifting us live music since 1942 and continues to do so. A club that has hosted a who's who of icons, legends and heroes to so many - Louis Armstrong, BB King, Fela Kuti, The Clash, The Specials, Toots & The Maytals, Oasis, Primal Scream, Nas to name but a few.

A space that holds the title of the oldest independent venue world wide. Somewhere that consistently and authentically champions new and alternative music. Ladies and gentleman - Welcome to the 100 Club!

To help tell the story, we are joined by 2 generations of the family who have been at the helm of the 100 for quite some time. Owner of the 100 Club Mr Jeff Horton and Jeff's daughter and the Venue Manager Ruby Horton.

We cover what bands and music venues can do to support their local communities, the unlikely convergence of country and hip-hop, and how COVID brought a global audience - from Estonia to Kenya - to The Windmill.
