Rising singer-songwriter Eli Lev – Franklin County Free Press

biography

Rising singer-songwriter Eli Lev is making the world smaller with each song. Eli writes lyrics and melodies for everyday enlightenment – songs that resonate because they are heartfelt, earthy, and convey the wisdom he has gained through a lifetime of travel and self-discovery. His latest project, an EP called Present Journey, is inspired by his current phase of life as a middle-aged, full-time independent musician who is a mobile lifestyle pioneer and internationally touring artist.

His previous release, The Four Directions Project, imaginatively and fearlessly bridges spheres and generations in a work that is irresistibly uplifting, emotionally stirring and down-to-earth. A hybrid of The Avett Brothers and The Lumineers, Lev has opened for both Shooter Jennings and Lee DeWyze, performed at the Kennedy Center and the 9:30 Club in Washington, DC, and toured extensively in the U.S. and abroad.

Eli Lev has performed in Andorra, Arkansas, Arizona, Australia, California, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Florida, France, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Israel, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico, New Zealand, New York, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Spain, Tennessee, Texas, Great Britain, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming –
