about

Exodus were based in Brisbane from 1992 until 2011.

Recorded in Kingston, Jamaica with members of the original Wailers, the album 'Traffic Jam' has been hailed by many as one of The Wailers great works. However this time the material is written by reggae artists from Brisbane.

Exodus were the leading Australian reggae name in the 90's and the band spent time with The Wailers, recording and touring the album. Exodus add smooth and crisp vocals to catchy reggae originals and The Wailers cap off an awesome sound in a way that only The Wailers can do.

Yohann Narain is the sole surviving member who formed Shem, a continuation of the good work of Exodus.
