In just over two months, Alpha Boys School Radio is now enjoying over 40,000 unique listeners from over 146 countries with the United Kingdom, United States, Japan and the Caribbean tuning in most often.   

Today we wanted to feature past Alpha Boy & renowned trumpeter Eddie “Tan Tan” Thornton who certainly boasts an impressive track record of collaborations; from the illustrious Don Drummond to The Beatles to, more recently, the UK’s retro-enthusiast favorites, sibling formation Kitty, Daisy and Lewis, he has played with some of the last century’s greatest musicians, and is, at the tender age of eighty-one, still very much active.

Lately, Tan Tan embarked on a tour of Japan, with Tokyo ska octet Cool Wise Man, which chose to support Alpha Boys’ School by adding a selection of ALPHAWEAR JA shirts to its merch table.   Check out the video of Tan Tan with Cool Wise Man below.
