Latin Quarter are a British band noted for their protest songs, the most successful of which was Radio Africa which was first released in 1984, re-released several times and reached number 19 in the charts in 1986.

Latin Quarter finally disbanded around 1998, but reunited in 2011 for a new album and tour in early 2012.
