History of House feat Groove Terminator and Soweto Gospel Choir
History of House, a collaboration between ARIA-nominated DJ Groove Terminator and three-time Grammy®-winners Soweto Gospel Choir, is an exhilarating journey through the history of dance music.
In a nutshell: Take the world’s greatest gospel choir who have performed live with stars including Aretha Franklin, Steve Wonder, Bono, Queen and Celine Dion, add in some funky 70s disco, sprinkle in some 80s pop and then strap in to be schooled in house music, from the mid 80s, through the 90s, to the end of the millennium. Behind the decks is Groove Terminator, one of Australia’s biggest DJs, who has produced dance music and captivated dancefloors for more than three decades.
The show was a smash hit at the 2020 Adelaide Fringe in its debut season, taking out the gong for Best Music Show.
“Seamlessly mixing classic house grooves with the mighty vocal power of the choir, the vibe is euphoric... If you love to dance, this joyous, explosive and dance-tastic show is a 100% must see” - ★★★★★ The Clothesline
“Collabs don’t come more epic than this” ★★★★★ Hi Fi Way

Feedback/Comments
Fantastic! Such an upbeat event. Beautiful voices.
Took me back to the late 80’s /early 90’s house scene and really brought high energy with the Soweto Afro choir adding fresh look and sounds to the house anthems. Great that there were younger audience members too, but us old clubbers got our moves out too! Would go again!
Great
A really good show and a great venue.
Very good event, albeit short. Maybe 30-40 mins longer would have been perfect. Great performances and energy!
A terrific event!
Such good fun and it finished all too soon!
Great energy and vibes all around. I think we all wanted more when they finished.
Great fun, terrific party vibe
