Thanks to everyone who supported us during our recent Fall Fund drive we were able to reach our goal. This means that WWUH will continue to bring you outstanding alternative programming in the months ahead.
We continue to operate "remotely" due to the pandemic with many programs being produced at home by our volunteers. We're hoping to resume live broadcasting later this spring.

Julian Clifford Mance, Jr., known as Junior Mance died January 17, 2021. He was 92. Born October 10, 1928, his career, which spanned 7 decades, began at age 10 when an upstairs neighbor needed a pianist. Throughout his long and distinguished career, he recorded over 50 albums as leader, beginning in 1959, and appeared on hundreds of others. His playing style was rooted in the blues, which he attributed to his mother who loved the genre and only bought blues records to bring home. He got his big break while doing guard sentry duty in the Army. He heard music coming from a clubhouse and, while in fatigues and guard gear, he encountered Cannonball Adderley who let him sit in on the session. Adderley quickly made arrangements for Mance to join the orchestra, and instead of going to Korea, he remained on base. Mance taught at The New School In NYC for 23 years and made his final recording in 2015. He passed away from complications of Alzheimer’s disease.
