Exile One, formed in the early 1970s by Gordon Henderson, stands as a pivotal force in Caribbean music. Credited with creating the Cadence-Lypso style, the band blends Cadence Rampa, calypso, reggae, and funk to shape the sounds that influenced zouk and broader Caribbean popular music. From the cream of mid-1970s classics to modern recognitions, Exile One remains a benchmark for musicians seeking cross-genre impact with authentic Caribbean roots.
