Bassline SUMMER celebrates the end of the year, time to have fun and let go, with the best of Mzansi talent from our most shining stars to our rising stars in the making!
See Headline artist Samthing Soweto, Urban-Soul singer-songwriter Langa Mavuso, Pop-trio Beatenberg with special guests Msaki & Tresor jumping on board, as part of their homecoming tour. The lineup is further strengthened with LaliBoi and renowned producer Spoek Mathambo who create a unique and vital blend of Hip-hop, Jazz and South African tribal music, their performance is thanks to the support of Concerts SA and their partners The Royal Norwegian Embassy, SAMRO & IKS Cultural Consulting.
The addition of Langa Mavuso & Beatenberg really takes the Bassline SUMMER into the next level of live music enjoyment.
BEATENBERG are excited to be performing at Bassline SUMMER as part of their homecoming tour, in support of their new EP entitled ‘ON THE WAY TO BEATENBERG’, which is the musical stalwarts’ first new offering in 4 years. Having just completed UK dates with George Ezra, the band set off on a sold out headline tour on 14 November at Rockwood Music Hall in New York before heading to LA, Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam, London, Johannesburg and Cape Town. They have also just been announced as part of the first 191 artists scheduled for SXSW 2023.
Self-produced by the trio, BEATENBERG already started writing the EP in the Southern Hemisphere since the summer of 2018/2019. At first they had no plan to release it, but got back into the songs earlier in 2022. The band recorded the EP at Sunset Recording Studios outside Stellenbosch, with a few additions in Cape Town.

The outcome of the call for applications for female lead bands/artists has added two wonderful fresh talents; Melo B Jones and Rah Punzl. Melo B Jones describes her music as Boom-Bap-Soul, while Rah Punzl is a Fresh Find" from RnB Soul, Trap-soul and Afro House.
