LEVELLERS LIVE

We’re giving away a couple of free downloads this month which you can get now – a live version of Before the End taken from our Royal Albert Hall show last year (I'm mixing more tracks right now, so keep checking the website....) and a track from Pama International who are on tour with us this month. We've been in the studio working hard on new material, and I’m looking to forward to getting on the road again in a couple of weeks. We're all intrigued to see which songs come out on top in the voting (the band is running a sweepstake!)– you can vote for songs you want us to play in the set on the next tour from here
