Another Jamaican singer, Beverly Kelso, is also known as an early member of The Wailers. She was a backing vocalist, and largely credited as one of the founding members of The Wailers (between 1963 and 1965). According to Kelso, she sang on 25 tracks by the group, the last in late 1965. She emigrated to the United States in 1979.
