(20 June) Join us for Mo Molemi’s “Motswako Black Tie”

A night of heritage, rhythm, and celebration. Dress up. Show up. Remember where we come from.

Known for his poetic command of Setswana, political honesty, and deeply reflective songwriting, Mo’Molemi’s music has always carried substance beyond entertainment — documenting life in Mahikeng, the frustrations of post-apartheid South Africa, and the realities of Black youth navigating identity, ambition, and survival. His collaborations and creative exchanges with artists such as HHP, Khuli Chana, Tuks Senganga, Morafe and Fifi Cooper helped shape the evolution of Motswako into one of the most influential movements in South African hip hop history.

For one night only, audiences will experience Mo’Molemi in a rare live band format

Tickets are still available on Quicket!

[[12 July]] The Brotherhood of Great Hearts (Live at the Basement)

Featuring: Lesedi Ntsane (Trumpet) | Muhammad Dawjee (Tenor Sax) | Kagiso Ramela (Alto Sax) | Neville Nhlanhla Radebe (Double Bass) | Maxwell Baloyi (Piano) | Tumi Mogorosi (Drums)

More than a band, The Brotherhood of Great Hearts exists as a living institution: a space where ideas, histories, and musical voices meet.

Drawing from the legacy of Black Consciousness and the pursuit of an egalitarian society, the collective explores the role of music as a vessel for liberation, reflection, and connection.

Gathering under the title of “Brotherhood”, while acknowledging the complexities and limitations of the term, the ensemble extends beyond gendered language toward a greater ideal: a shared humanity anchored in truth, love, and freedom.

In a time of uncertainty, they hold firmly to the call of the “Great Heart”, an ideal of courage, integrity, and devotion to the search for meaning through sound.

This is music that honours the past, engages the present, and imagines new possibilities for the future.

Back by popular demand, Don Laka (Don Laka) returns to the stage at Untitled Basement for an intimate, deeply immersive edition of The Legacy Series.

Tickets are now live (Book on Quicket)

After an unforgettable night at The Basement, the conversation continues, only now it goes deeper. Closer. More intentional.

This is not a re-run of a performance; it is a living archive unfolding in real time.

A true pioneer of South African sound, Don Laka steps into this space not only as a performer, but as a storyteller and sonic architect. Audiences will be invited into a curated journey through seminal works like “Mamelodi” and “Ithuba” songs that have carried memory, identity, and cultural rhythm across generations.

In a rare and exclusive moment, Don Laka introduces selections from his forthcoming album offering audiences a first listen before release. New sound in direct dialogue with foundational works. What came before, and what is still becoming, held in the same room.

The legendary South African pianist Paul Hanmer has assembled a special ensemble to pay tribute to the late great Feya Faku.

featuring guest dj: DJ BOB (Bob Allan)

Last year, the two jazz icons were set to share a stage in Switzerland, a performance cut tragically short by Feya’s untimely passing just a day before the show. Now, Paul Hanmer has painstakingly assembled the exact powerhouse lineup originally intended for that European tour—bringing together a brilliant rhythm section, brass, and a full string quartet to celebrate a truly beautiful artist and human being.

Rhythm Section:
Sydney Mavundla on flugelhorn
Nhlanhla Radebe on bass
Bernice Boikanyo on drums

Strings Quartet:
Bonolo Kgaile, Lebogang Ledwaba (violins), Khotso Langa (viola), and Daliwonga Tshangela (violoncello)

Tickets are available on Quicket (via the link in our bio)
