Jonathan Levi Band

New day, new way

Jacobo Barreiro — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 22:09:34 +0000

A few things have been going on during the last few months, thus, the reason why we have been so ‘quiet’ lately. We are going through a transition period in which we are exploring some new directions. Our music will evolve naturally, influenced by the new things we learn, see, hear and feel in our darkest hour and brightest morning. What evokes our music is real life as we know it.

For now, we decided to make our EP “These Doors” available for free for all of you to enjoy! There are many different reasons why we decided to do this, but mainly because we wanted to make it easier for you to enjoy our music, to pass it along, and to even use it as a sound track for your personal, everyday lives (those special moments that only a song can articulate). After all, that’s one of the most important reason’s why we do this.

“These Doors” will still be available on iTunes, Amazon, and other online stores if you want to provide some extra support ;)

Songs List:

1.- Colors of You (Jonathan Levi)
2.- Show Me Your Smile (Jacobo Barreiro, Jonathan Levi)
3.- These Doors (Jonathan Levi)
4.- The Other Way (Jonathan Levi)
5.- Hide Myself Away (Jonathan Levi)
6.- Still Standing Here (acoustic) (Jacobo Barreiro, Jonathan Levi)

New video: “Fairytale Won’t Do”

Jacobo Barreiro — Sun, 24 May 2009 03:19:40 +0000

Jonathan Levi: Vocals/Acoustic Guitar
Jacobo Barreiro: Electric Guitar/iPhone ;)

We recorded this song a few days ago. Vocals, acoustic guitar and some electric guitar arrangements. After that we decided to add a cello… but without a cello. Well, some real cello samples controlled by the iPhone (iPhone as a wireless MIDI controller). We thought it would be funny :)… or maybe it’s not… oh well…

“Colors of You” – Video

Jacobo Barreiro — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 21:24:13 +0000

What to do with some random clips taken to test out a ‘new’ HV30? Well, do some editing and add a nice soundtrack ;), just for fun.
The clips used were taken in the same day around Union Square, in San Francisco. Random people, random situations… just testing :).

The song, “Colors of You”, belongs to our first EP “These Doors“, available in iTunes and Amazon.
