Recorded in Bordeaux, mixed in Sydney by Dojo Cuts' and The Liberators' head honcho Nate Goldentone and mastered in LA at Golden Mastering, with "I've Come A Long Way" Alexis Evans is ready to impress you with one of the most original and honest deep soul and rhythm and blues album that you'll find around. The first single "I made a deal with myself" is an irresistible uptempo soul floorsahaker and it's just a little appetizer of the incredible talent of the Bordeaux-based singer-songwriter-producer.

This man has a total command of what makes a soul record great, and is still in his early twenties! One of the most exciting additions to the scene and one that I suspect we will still be hearing from decades from now! - Craig Charles BBC6 Music
