Produced by Greg Haver and recorded at Roundhead Studios in Auckland, Mirror Man is a unique, exquisitely crafted and genre-spanning track.  With a classical twist on folk music, a hint of country & western and building to an almost indie rock vibe, this track has extremely broad appeal.

Levi’s powerful and emotional tones, blended with an uncommon mix of instruments including cajon, saxophone and cello, provide the listener with vivid imagery.  The lyrics encourage self-analysis and inspire us to let go of guilt and any other negative emotions which may be holding us back.

“Mirror Man was written following a dream I had several years ago.  The dream was so vivid and disturbing to me that it set me on a journey of soul searching and introspection in order to become more self-aware.  Self-awareness is the key to change” says Levi.

Produced by Mitch French of Black Dog Recording Studio in Auckland, Eyes Of A Child is an incredibly powerful track which once again spans multiple genres.  With a heavy folk influence and a catchy pop melody, this track will again have extremely broad appeal.

Levi’s heartfelt and passionate vocal, coupled with an unusual blend of instruments including a fluttering saxophone and moody cello, make for a very unique sound.  The lyrics encourage us all to become open, trusting and loving and to see again how the world looks through the innocent eyes of a child.

Levi said of the track, “Eyes Of A Child was written after I missed my daughter’s birthday. Although disappointed, she was forgiving, accepting and loving. Children have an incredible capacity for acceptance and forgiveness which we seem to lose sight of as adults.  This track was very much part of my own self-development and encouraged me to regain those childhood virtues and see the world as I did as a child”.

Produced by the extremely talented Mitch French of Black Dog Recording Studio, Like A Tie is another thought provoking track which spans multiple genres and will have very broad appeal.  Opening with a string tone so soft you could sleep on it, Like A Tie starts you off gently with subtle urban, indie pop flavours and a catchy melody to compliment the arrangement.  Come the chorus the energy rises and pulls you right in to its smooth ambiance. 

From the gentle, consoling notes of the intro to the gravelly tones of the chorus, Levi’s exquisite vocal brings wonderful light and shade to this track.   An uncommon blend of instruments including a sultry saxophone and the sonorous elegance of the cello, make for a very unique sound.  The lyrics speak of escaping the nine-to-five grind and freeing ourselves of the day to day chains which bind so many of us.

Levi said of the track, “I've been through education; and I've been through the career which that education led me to.  I left it all behind with dissatisfaction and wrote this song”.
