Alton Edwards is a Zimbabwean singer, who had a UK Top 20 hit with "I Just Wanna (Spend Some Time with You)" during January 1982. He wrote and recorded a song called "Thank You from Africa" which was a song to thank the Western artists for the help given to Africa, mostly to Ethiopia. The song is still played on Zimbabwean TV and some other African countries. All proceeds were collected by the International Red Cross.
I love performing at all sorts of events
We normally arrive few hours before the event, all depends on the type of the event and the amount of gear
Sets depends on the event ( 1x45 min standard )
We’re happy to play outside but we ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area
We can learn specific songs before the event but limited number. Clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them.
Last review :
Alton Edwards and his band played for our wedding ceremony which turned out to be one of our best decisions of all! They were highly professional throughout the planning process and their performance was seamless on the day. They are highly talented musicians and they managed to create my ‘dream moment’ as I walked down the aisle. I would highly recommend them for any event! Thank you Alton !! Loads of love from Okusi family !!
