SUMMARY:Untitled Basement Presents: Amadodana Ase Wesile
DESCRIPTION:Untitled Basement Legacy Series presents: Amadodana Ase Wesile \n1 May | Untitled Basement \nThere are voices that entertain — and then there are voices that carry history. \nThis May\, Untitled Basement opens its doors to one of South Africa’s most revered choral ensembles\, Amadodana Ase Wesile\, as part of our Legacy Series — a celebration of the artists who have shaped the sound\, spirit\, and memory of our nation. \nFormed in 1985 within the Methodist Church\, Amadodana Ase Wesile have spent over four decades defining and preserving a powerful tradition of African gospel music. Their unmistakable acapella harmonies — rooted in hymn\, story\, and spiritual expression — have echoed through churches\, homes\, and cultural spaces across generations. \nFor many\, their music is more than sound — it is memory. It is Sunday mornings. It is family gatherings. It is the quiet\, sacred moments that shaped who we are. \nWith a catalogue spanning decades\, multiple award wins\, and performances across the world\, Amadodana Ase Wesile are not only a musical group — they are custodians of heritage\, often described as a national treasure for their enduring cultural impact. \nThis intimate performance at Untitled Basement offers a rare opportunity to experience their music up close — stripped back\, deeply human\, and profoundly moving. An invitation to sit in nostalgia\, to reconnect \nwith something familiar\, and to witness a living legacy in real time. \nThe Legacy Series is about honouring where we come from — and this moment is exactly that. \nCome and experience the sound of home.

SUMMARY:Zamajobe at Hugh's Jazz Club
DESCRIPTION:Zamajobe Sithole known as Zamajobe is a South African singer songwriter who’s humble beginnings are from the cool and dusty streets of Vosloorus\, East Rand. Born in Vereeniging at her Grandmother’s house\, her parents Nombuso and Themba Sithole moved to Johannesburg for work opportunities and the family of four\, with Zamajobe’s older brother Ayanda Sithole\, where 1st based in Soweto and then permanently got settled in Vosloorus\, East Rand. \nZamajobe’s mother came from a religious backround and naturally she instilled that in her children. Making them active members in the church. That’s where Zamajobe would get introduced to and fell madly in love with the soulful and uplifting sounds of Gospel music. Mixed with Zamajobe’s Father who was an Academic and heavy jazz music collector\, that’s where Zamajobe would later get her infusion of music influences which would later be a major influence in her writing and composition style. \nHer 1st major introduction into the South African audience was when she was voted out 7th  in the 2nd season of Idols South Africa. Altough she didn’t obviously win\, she got major publicity from the competition and had a lot of recording offers from major labels across the country. Zama then went and signed with Sony under the guidance of Dave Thompson who was a judge in Idols and a mentor throughout the competition for Zamajobe. \n8 months after signing her 1st recording deal Zamajobe went to release her critically acclaimed debut album Ndawo Yami\, which is celebrating 20 yrs this year with various celebrations happening throughout the country. The double platinum album won several categories at the SOUTH AFRICAN MUSIC AWARDS (SAMA) and other major awards shows in the country and abroad\, with nominees in the MTV EUROPE Awards to name a few. Followed by her 2nd and 3rd album Ndoni Yamanzi and Thula Mtwana which have had successes in their own right. \nZamajobe has enjoyed a 20yr long career of touring and gigging till this day. Working with some of the best musicians in the world both locally and abroad. Her timeless\, soulful and African funk sounds have given her a permanent name in the game and has solidified her as a very strong force in the South African music industry. \nAlthough its been 10 yrs since her last release\, Zamajobe’s much anticipated 4th studio album Umi is due for release in November. Even having started 20 yrs ago\, Zamajobe feels like she’s starting afresh and is anticipating another long and successful career ahead of her\, starting with her long awaited studio album Umi. These are exciting times for the singer and she’s very much excited for the journey ahead. \nDoors open at 18:00 \nThe show begins promptly at 19:30
