Join Professor David Coplan and Óscar Gutiérrez for the launch of their book, Last Night at the Bassline.

Kaya FM’s Brenda Sisane will be in conversation with the authors and will be broadcasting live from the book launch.

This book lets the reader into the story of how a world of music and a venue that knew no borders, with an anti-xenophobic stance and multiculturalism, opened its doors to patrons of all creeds and musicians from the diaspora such as Louis Mhlanga, Oliver Mtukudzi, Gito Baloi and from the rest of the word while bringing Carlo Mombelli, Abdullah Ibrahim, Dorothy Masuka, Hugh Masekela and many more back into the country.
