The 100 Club in London attained the status of “legendary” in modern British music, having played host to some of the most influential artists on the planet since 24 October 1942. Converse joined forces with The 100 Club in 2011, when it was threatened with closure due to rent increases and local taxes. Its future now secured, it continues to host some of the most interesting acts on the music scene, from big names to obscure up-and-comings, and now it will host SA’s finest unsigned talent.
