We are honored to present a transcendent collaboration between four musicians who begin from different places but arrive as one. Karl-Martin Almqvist, Nduduzo Makhathini, Magne Thormodsæter, and Ayanda Sikade form Ababhemu Quartet, and present their new album The Travelers on April 19, 2024. The seeds of the quartet were planted while recording Makhathini’s ‘Listening To The Ground’ album years ago, and finally the band is in full force with a powerful statement of unity.

This quartet puts forward the message of brotherhood across colored lines, and across geography. Ababhemu Quartet plays against the history of coloniality and puts the sound in the center of how we can imagine a world that is united and goes against the historical catastrophies. The Ababhemu Quartet is all about Trust and Brotherhood.
