Get ready for a night of electrifying rhythm and soul-stirring harmony as Sydney’s premier gospel choir, Café of the Gate of Salvation, steps beyond its a cappella roots for a one-of-a-kind live performance at Mary’s Underground (formerly The Basement) in Circular Quay.

Under the dynamic direction of Tony Backhouse, the choir will be joined by special guests Peter Dasent on keyboards and Jeremy Cook on drums, adding a rich new dimension to their signature sound.

This special evening celebrates the powerful intersection of gospel, soul, funk, and R&B – music born from resistance, alive with hope, and pulsing with liberation. Expect a thrilling setlist of timeless gospel anthems and irresistible soul grooves, delivered by a powerhouse choir and a standout lineup of soloists.
