About Musical Youth
Musical Youth grew from a group of school-age musicians in Birmingham, England, with family links to Jamaican vocal group the Techniques through Frederick Waite. Dennis Seaton became lead singer after the group signed with MCA. Pass the Dutchie introduced their reggae and ska sound to an international audience. Their subsequent work included Unconditional Love with Donna Summer, while Seaton and Michael Grant later revived the name as a duo.
