Steve Mancha is the stage name for Clyde Wilson, one of the greatest Soul singers and songwriters to emerge from Detroit in the 1960s. His may not be a household name, but in Soul music circles, he is known as one of the best our town had to offer.
I was first introduced to the name Steve Mancha by my friend and fellow music disciple, Matt Weingarden (

News of a change to djs and hours for the 100 Club January event Dear 6TS goer, Unfortunately the manager of the 100 Club applied for our all-nighter extension a day too late and despite our excellent reputation and record over the years, the police licensing authorities refused to allow us any leeway. We therefore have to finish the night at the club's latest licensed closing time of 3 am. We will be starting proceedings at 9pm. This will not affect future 100 Club all nig

I’m sorry to bring you more bad news this week. We did not apply for the licence in time for this nighter and rather than go ahead with a 3am event, we felt it best to cancel it.
