The story

Afro-dite is a Swedish pop group consisting of Blossom Tainton-Lindquist, Gladys del Pilar, and Kayo Shekoni. The name is a play on words implying that they are Black and as beautiful as the Greek goddess Aphrodite.Blossom had already been in show business for a long time. She is a singer and dancer who has appeared in several musicals and hosted TV shows on Swedish television.

Gladys, who was born in Ecuador, came to Sweden when she was seven years old. She worked with Dr. Alban and Denniz Pop, but her breakthrough came when she appeared in ABBA – The True Story.

Kayo is a singer, actress, TV show host and model. In the 1980s, she sang with the pop group Freestyle and in the 1990s, she fronted the Eurodance project Le Click.
