Born Tebogo Sedumedi, Aus' Tebza picked up the bass out of necessity at 15 — her band needed one, and no one else could play it — and never put it down. What started as a gap to fill became a twelve-year run as bassist in the late HHP's band, where she shared stages with the likes of Simphiwe Dana, Bucie, Wouter Kellerman, and Proverb, absorbing lessons in musicianship and stagecraft that would shape everything she built afterward.

Beyond the bass, Tebza has quietly built a parallel career as a songwriter, vocalist, and music director — serving as musical director for the Mbokodo Awards and performing as a bassist at the South African Feather Awards, all while writing and arranging for the bands she moved through. Her sound is rooted in the preservation of African music and storytelling, weaving her own experience into traditional 6/8 rhythmic patterns to create something distinctly her own.

After more than a decade of lending her sound to others, Aus' Tebza has stepped fully into her own spotlight — releasing two solo albums and continuing to write and perform under her own name. What began in service of a band has become a formidable force of her own: a bassist, singer, and storyteller commanding her own stage, on her own terms.
