Levi Weaver is an American independent musician, singer songwriter, and performer. He was born in Colorado, raised in Fort Worth, TX, and now resides in Dallas. Though Levi is an independent musician, he is perhaps best known for his collaborations with artists such as Jenny & Tyler, Imogen Heap and Kid Beyond. Levi's music style can be described as alternative rock or acoustic, though it varies from track to track and album to album. On tour, Levi has collaborates with guest artists at times, but typically performs his own works solo. In order to replicate a complex, multi-layered sound from studio sessions, he makes extensive use of a loop pedal during some of his live performances. == Personal history == Born in Colorado and raised in Texas, Weaver moved to Birmingham, England in 2005 after his former band broke up. He then released his first EP, the self-recorded "Civil War Between My Heart and Mind," in April 2006.〔(Levi Weaver: An American In Birmingham: Birmingham England, not Alabama )〕 During the fall of that year, Weaver toured with Kid Beyond, in support of Imogen Heap. Due to the extended absence from his previous employment in England while touring, Weaver lost his British visa and in February 2007 moved back to the United States. He spent several years in the Nashville, TN area, and now resides in Dallas, Texas. Weaver's first full-length album, "You Are Never Close To Home, You Are Never Far From Home" was made available at a CD show in Fort Worth, Texas at the Ridglea Theater later that year. In 2008, Weaver toured the U.S. extensively, and also began work on his second full-length studio album. In 2009, he took down his website and shared his demos exclusively through the forum (which remained online). At the end of that summer, Weaver began working with Mitch Dane to record the songs that would make up the album, and continued to tour between studio sessions. The last tour of 2009 was with Norwegian songstress Kate Havnevik, after which he settled back into the studio with new producer Aaron Dethrage to finish the album which would eventually be titled "The Letters of Dr. Kurt Gödel". In March 2011, after two years of work, this album was released on Weaver's (Bandcamp page ). Levi's tours of the United States typically involved him traveling solo. However, he announced through his website that a tour in 2013 and 2014 was going to be with his family, who had recently sold many of their possessions, ended their apartment lease, and moved into a recreational vehicle for the duration of the tour. There are times where Levi has been accompanied by other musicians during his performances. He has performed in several states with the duo Jenny & Tyler, and is described by their website as contributing to a recent album, "For Freedom". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Levi Weaver」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
