My first main musical inspiration was in 1974.

I was 9 years old. When I went to Jamaica with my family to visit my Grandparents, In St Elizabeth, Elderslie, and Big Ground. There my Auntie had a cafe bar. The jukebox played Reggae music like Bob Marley, Prince Fari etc… all day long in the summer holidays where I would listen with my cousins. I also owe all my musical talents to my Father. Sidney Lewis (AKA) “Blue Beat” … He was a Great singer songwriter and an accomplished pianist….

I give thanks to all my friends and family who helped to make these musical works possible.

Jaffa, Natural Mystic and Osirus B. To name but a few for inspiring me in so many ways.

After visiting Egypt in 2006, I was inspired to write this track off my newly released Album called “Pyramids”. Special thanks to my Great Ancestors for guiding and directing me on this musical journey.

One love… Lewe Ire
