Eddy Grant is a Guyanese-British musician born in 1948, who first achieved success with the multiracial band The Equals before launching a hugely successful solo career. With The Equals, Grant scored a hit with 'Baby, Come Back.' As a solo artist, Grant pioneered a unique sound blending reggae, pop, rock, and electronic music. His biggest hits included 'Electric Avenue,' 'I Don't Wanna Dance,' and 'Gimme Hope Jo'anna' (an anti-apartheid anthem). Grant built his own studio in Barbados and maintained complete artistic control. His music addressed social and political issues while remaining accessible and danceable.
