Andre Toussant

The
Bahamas woke up every morning to
“Where have all the flowers Gone”,
on Radio Bahamas in the 1960s,
which was this crooner’s re-make
of the classic. Andre hailed from
Port Au Prince Haiti. He brought
merengue and Haitian culture to
the Bahamas tourists’ scene and was
lead singer for a number of bands
before he went solo. Other Haitian
artists like Robert “Bob” Gordon
complemented his fare along with
an all Haitian band that played at the
Pink Pussy Cat in the 1970s.
