Biografia:
Eddy Grant ou Edmond Montague Grant (Plaisance, 5 de março de 1948) é um músico da Guiana. Muito jovem, seus pais emigraram para o Reino Unido, onde ele se estabeleceu. Em 1968, como guitarrista e compositor do grupo multi-racial The Equals, ele alcançou pela primeira vez o topo das paradas de sucesso, com a canção Baby Come Back.
Muitas de suas composições têm forte cunho político, especialmente as que escreveu contra o apartheid da África do Sul.
