This Heritage Month, WordUP Sessions comes alive with a line-up that speaks in many tongues, rhythms and stories — curated by iThongo_Experience.
Mpumelelo Makoloane: poetry rooted in teaching, storytelling and lived experience, moving effortlessly between Sesotho, Setswana and English.
uMndau: indigenous instruments, ancestral poetry, improvised chants and high-energy grooves from a multidisciplinary collective of musicians, artists and makers.
Kkash kaNdaba: Nguni Folk Soul carrying stories of love, struggle, memory and healing through indigenous language and soul-driven vocals.
Fernando Khosa: Soweto poet, performer and storyteller giving language to the unspoken, the ordinary and the deeply human.
And yes, the mic stays open.
Limited Open Mic slots available.
Register and share a poem, a joke or a story.
