His And Hers Jams hosted AMAZING live bands in 2015. Here is the sneak peak of the last two months of 2015 with the AWESOME bands they showcased on their stage. 

THROW BACK 2015. . His And Hers Jams. . .

Every last Sunday of the Month. . You are invited. . 

His & Hers Jams it’s an Artistic Hub by the creatives of the movement, Letsoinyane Mophethe, Tshidiso Setshongwe and Ngoako Mailula they are all from Soweto. They saw a gap and they made sure that they fill up the gap by hosting monthly shows which consist of; live music performances, Djs showcasing their knowledge of music by playing music for the chilled and organized crowd from in and out of Soweto. Also, there are exhibitions hosted during the events, the beautiful crowd come in numbers to show support the movement, live the life of appreciating a good time with beautiful people and some good music on the background.

Here is a short background of the brand; His & Hers Jams started in March 2013 with the aim of targeting a specific audience. Their target is:

-Young people in general from every sphere who are hungering for an alternative form of entertainment exemplified by our sessions. ARTLOVERS

- Creative industry players who are in the creative media, creative directors, accountants, film industry and also the ones in the music industry. OUR ARTISTS.

- Media workers, journalists and independent writers who are members of the township organic funk movement, as well as those who will be covering the developments of the project.

- The provincial and international tourist market.

The past decade has been characterized by the growth of alternative entertainment formats previously unheard of in the Jozi scene, particularly when it comes to younger generation of entertainment consumers. Hip- hop, Organic Soul, Funky Jazz and Poetry have undoubtedly added an extra flavour in the entertainment diet of urban youth. Artists such as Khethi and Her Afro Twists, Brother Moves On,   Ipande Core, Urban Village, The Fridge, The Muffinz Rebirth and Planet Lindela represent this new breed of young artists whose musical and lyrical expressions have redefined quality entertainment.

The energy that comes with such quality entertainment creates a vital space required to celebrate life beyond the stage. Such a phenomenon has managed to manifest itself in the growing demand for alternative entertainment for the upwardly mobile youth. We perceive this as an indication of not only maturity in young people’s preferences of entertainment, but also an indication of how critical cultural expressions are for the holistic development our society, including young people. It is in this light that we conceived the idea of utilizing such a space for the economic empowerment and skills exchange activities, by combining arts development and business elements in a form of HIS AND HERS JAM SESSIONS.
