DJ Groove Terminator and Soweto Gospel Choir - a euphoric collaboration

Queensland Premiere

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, Stevie 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.
