The Pedestrians are a young, multi- genre band based in Cape Town. Celebrating five years of existence, the band has many accolades that supersede their fresh looks and unique yet relatable sound.

The band also gave birth to seven original tracks when they staged their own production called Viva D6 Queens, which was written and directed by Quanita Adams in 2016.

This single caught the attention of the international husband and wife, Kenny Thomas and Fransisca Blasich who are doing a duet cover version of the song.
