SUMMARY:Bantu Social presents Urban Soundscapes
DESCRIPTION:URBAN SOUNDSCAPESSunday\, 30 August | Soweto Gallary (no typo) x Trackside StudiosSome Sundays deserve more than errands and routines. They deserve good people\, honest conversation and music that lingers long after the last note.Urban Soundscapes invites you into an intimate afternoon where Jazz meets Soul\, broken beats dance with Hip-Hop\, and improvisation becomes a language of its own. Hosted at the Soweto Gallary in Orlando West and a stone’s throw from the Hector Pietersen MemorialMuseum \, and in partnership with Trackside Studios\, this special gathering welcomes one of Soweto's most exciting live ensembles\, Bantu Social.Born in the heart of Gauteng around 2016 under the direction of drummer and creative visionary Molefi "Levos" Phuroe\, Bantu Social has become synonymous with fearless musical exploration. Their performances move effortlessly between jazz\, neo-soul\, lounge and broken beat\, creating rich sonic landscapes that are both deeply rooted and constantly evolving.Having shared stages from Jazz on the Lawn and The Great Escape Festival to Design Indaba\, International Jazz Day and Namibia's Festival Operation Phenduka\, the collective continues to carve out a sound that is unmistakably their own as they prepare for the release of their debut EP.Leading the journey is the captivating Mela Genre \, whose voice shifts effortlessly between tenderness and power. Alongside her\, Thabo Morajane paints elegant harmonic textures on piano\, Sandile Mbatha anchors every groove with inventive bass lines\, while Levos drives the music with hypnotic rhythms that are equal parts precision and surprise.Whether you're a devoted jazz listener\, a crate-digging beat enthusiast or simply searching for a beautiful way to spend a Sunday\, Urban Soundscapes offers a space to slow down\, connect and lose yourself in music made with intention.Come early. Find your corner. Share a drink. Stay for the conversations between the notes.Sunday\, 30 August - Doors open at 2pmSoweto Gallary Presented in partnership with Trackside StudiosMusic. Community.
