Although greatly impressed and intrigued by Reggae’s musical greats, EVER-G has developed a distinctive and sophisticated style of his own, which is appreciated by music lovers everywhere and has garnered him an international fan base. EVER-G, born Everett G. Streete hails from Cash Hill, Hanover (parish), Jamaica. His love of life and passion to succeed was evident, since the tender age of 4, where he took every opportunity he could to sing in his neighborhood church or schools. Everett’s passion and thirst for growth and knowledge became a reality, at age 12, when he received a full scholarship to Rusea’s High School. His passion for learning continued there as did his lust for music. By 15, Everett was playing the guitar and by 16 he was lead vocalist in the school’s band. Everett continued his string of successes with his acceptance to college, where he graduated from the Jamaica School of Agriculture (JSA) with a Diploma & Teacher’s Certificate and the additional titles of lead vocalist, guitarist and keyboardist of his college band. Everett, now known as EVER-G, was fortunate to complete his first recording at Bob Marley’s Tuff Gong Studio in Kingston, Jamaica. EVER-G fulfilled this dream as the lead singer of the band “Children of Jah”. EVER-G migrated to the USA in 1984, after going through a traumatic experience, leaving everyone and everything he loved behind to build a better life. He landed and integrated himself into a new life on the US East Coast.
