Renowned Ghanaian guitarist Alfred Kari Bannerman and soul singer Cuttie Williams have arrived in Accra to perform at this year’s edition of a musical concert dubbed ‘Pop Chain All-Star Concert’.

The two music icons and their managers were met on arrival by the organisers of the event.

Alfred Kari Bannerman has performed with bands such as Osibisa and other music heavyweights like Hugh Masekela, the late E.T Mensah, Ronnie Laws, among others.

Cuttie Williams graces international platforms with a variety of music genres, including jazz, calypso, soul, R&B, reggae and Latin.

The two will perform alongside Ghanaian music stars such Bessa Simons, Paulina Oduro, Ben Brako, among others.

The musicians are expected to deliver their finest performances so far on the stage on Saturday.

The event which is expected to attract a large number of jazz music lovers from all walks of life will take place at the +233 Jazz Bar & Grill at North Ridge in Accra this Saturday, September 30.

It is being organised to raise funds for the ‘Joy Sugar Project’ which creates awareness on and screens for diabetes.

Started two years ago, the ‘Joy FM Pop Chain’ has seen bands from the pop chain era which spans from the 60s to the 80s, perform to teeming fans who have shown willingness to support the worthy cause.

High school bands of that era will be performing to invoke memories of nightlife back in the days.
