The Legacy Series : Amadodana Ase Wesile : Part 2

Untitled Basement Legacy Series Presents:

Amadodana Ase Wesile – Part II

2 May | Untitled Basement

There are voices that entertain — and then there are voices that carry history.

Following a sold-out first performance, we are proud to announce Part II. Due to overwhelming demand, we’ve added an additional night—creating another opportunity to experience one of South Africa’s most revered choral ensembles, Amadodana Ase Wesile, live at Untitled Basement.

This May, Untitled Basement welcomes 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.

Formed 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 a cappella harmonies—rooted in hymn, storytelling, and spiritual expression—have echoed through churches, homes, and cultural spaces across generations.

For 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 shape who we are.

With a catalogue spanning decades, multiple awards, and performances across the world, Amadodana Ase Wesile are not simply a musical group—they are custodians of heritage, widely regarded as a national treasure for their enduring cultural impact.

This intimate performance 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 with something familiar, and to witness a living legacy in real time.

The Legacy Series is about honouring where we come from—and this moment embodies exactly that.

Come and experience the sound of home.

Doors open: 18:00
