Levi Platero Biography
"Wow!!! a great example of a guitar player with a gift who has the guitar playing intuition of much a experienced player. His quiet nature is unleashed in a style that mixes Texas Blues, vintage rock, to modern guitar heroes such as Eric Johnson and Steve Vai. His live shows captivate with flurries of guitar acrobatics all the way down to soulful expressiveness. He is a player to be reckoned with as his experience grows" (J Howell, Studio Recording Engineer) Levi Platero is a gifted guitarist, singer songwriter from Albuquerque, NM. He first came on the music scene in 2004 at a small music fest in Northern AZ. In 2005 he performed at the Gathering of Nations in Albuquerque, NM as the lead guitarist. He was only 12 years old. He came out on stage that night and amazed the packed crowd. Levi slid across the stage with power chords with screaming blues notes as his father handled the bass guitar and the vocals and his older cousin kept the beat on the drums. This first major performance brought the young guitarist into the main scene of the music industry. Afterwards the crowd welcomed the family band with great gratitude as they screamed “Levi, Levi, Levi”. Little did they know that this was only the beginning of a journey that would take them from a small New Mexico community to the main National music stages across the country, even to make a stop and perform at the 2009 U.S Presidential Inaugural Ball in Washington, DC. Today Levi continues to perform with his band, they are considered one of the most exciting and gifted musicians to watch and hear. Their style is filled with Texas blues and covering classic rock. Their own music had garnered them a 2009 from their "Hang On" full album and 2015 New Mexico Music Awards for Best Blues from their "Take Me Back" EP and numerous nominations at other music industry events & festival. Their first music video “Forever I'm With You” was nominated for best video at the AIFF in 2010 in San Francisco, CA, and won best music video at the 2010 Dream Keeper Film Festival in Alberta Canada. They have toured the U.S as The Plateros, and as part of Indigenous. They have opened and shared the stage with War, Los Lonely Boys, Los Lobos, Johnny Lang, Robert Randolph and the Family Band, Eric Gales, just to name a few. They also took part in the NMR Tour across the U.S in selected cites at Hard Rock Cafes. Levi and the band is moving towards dropping their new album (EP) “Take Me Back” with a more modern blues rock. The album is filled with all originals, with cuts that take the group into Pop, Raggae and pure modern rock, but yet with his signature blues rock guitar style.
