Inner Exile

Inner Exile is Zurich-based Lee Everton's debut full-length. The singer and musician crosses the borders between Roots Reggae, Blues, Country and Soul with surprising ease. The foundation for this unique songwriter-reggae is Lee's own invented slingsstyle rhythm, combining beautiful melodies with captivating rhythms and intense lyrics. The result is a new sound somewhere between Bob Marley, Bob Dylan and Van Morrison. Lee Everton was fascinated with black music and he traveled to Jamaica when he was 18 to spend a year at the Jamaican School of Music in Kingston. The sessions with musicians from all over the Caribbean had a lasting impact on him. Working later at the Quad Recording Studios in New York, he assisted sessions with Alicia Keys, Kanye West and Celia Cruz.
