about
from reggae.ch: " Lee Everton reinterprets reggae with «I Feel Like Dancing» The moments are rare when you listen to an album and you suddenly realize something is different and new and you find yourself immersing into an unknown world feeling familiar and comfortable all the same. Lee Everton from Zurich achieved this with his touching debut album "Inner Exile". The singer and musician crosses the boarders between Roots Reggae, Blues, Country and Soul with surprising ease. Foundation for this unique songwriter reggae is Lee's own invented "Slingsstyle Rhythm", combining beautiful melodies with captivating rhyhthms and intense lyrics. The result is a new sound somewhere between Bob Marley, Bob Dylan and Van Morrison. From his early teenage days Lee Everton was fascinated with Black Music. Searching for the right song and the perfect sound he travelled 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. Only recently he attended a workshop for songwriters in Los Angeles where he met the successful songwriter Penny Framstad who offered him to coach him on two of his songs. A chance he took gladly. Turning point in his life was a car accident which he survived mainly uninjured but which made him more pensive and sensitive. With all those
