Edmond Montague "Eddy" Grant (born 5 March 1948) is a Guyanese British musician. The Allmusic journalist Jo-Ann Greene noted: "Eddy Grant stands among an elite group of artists as one who has not just merely moved successfully across the musical spectrum, but has actually been at the forefront of genres and even created one of his own. From pop star to reggae radical, musical entrepreneur to the inventor of ringbang, the artist has cut a swath through the world of music and made it his own."[1]
Boasting 15 studio albums and 13 compilation albums to date, Grant has had hit albums across the world including gold accreditation in the US with album "Killer on the Rampage" where it peaked at number 10 on the Billboard 200 chart.
Grant has had 19 single releases to date, and is best known for the his singles "Electric Avenue" which received Platinum accreditation in The US. "I Don't Wanna Dance" topped the charts in five countries including Belgium, Ireland and his native UK.
After 12 years without a hit single, Grant once again hit the top 10 in the UK with the ringbang remix of "Electric Avenue" peaking at number 5 and putting him back in the charts across Europe.
