Lolene Everett (born March 12, 1985), professionally known simply as Lolene, is a British recording artist, songwriter, record producer and performer from Bristol, England. Lolene was raised by her mother and describes herself as "independent by default" for this reason. While in Bristol, Lolene began singing backing vocals for Martina Topley-Bird (vocalist for Tricky) and also collaborated with local drum and bass pioneer Roni Size. On relocating to London, Lolene signed a development deal with BMG Records to front their latest girl group.
