Since returning to music after diving into the depths of full-time meditation, New York based Meli Levi has made a name for herself as an innovative artist who creates deep connections with her listeners. Melding compelling progressive indie rock with the soul of a singer-songwriter, her style has been likened to artists such as Boygenius, Radiohead and Hozier.
Meli has shared the stage with Brandi Carlile, Amy Ray (Indigo Girls), Kelly Finnigan (Monophonics) and Abby Posner, and recently co-headlined tours with Kristen Ford (Righteous Babe Records).
Meli's songwriting and performing have gained significant recognition including being recently selected as a Semi-Finalist in the 2025 Unsigned Only Music awards and placing as a semi finalist in both the 2024 International Songwriting Competition, the largest music competition in the world, and the 2024 Unsigned Only Music Awards.
Self-produced and released in May 2024, Meli’s latest EP release, All Things May Be, showcases Meli’s imaginative arrangements, skilled guitar work and a dexterous voice that has "the prairie-dog cuteness of Brandi Carlile...but can crescendo like Jeff Buckley...” - (Seattle Sound Magazine).
“Levi crafts an emotive blend of folk rock and blues, leaning into moments of gentle intimacy and well-honed grooves.” - Under The Radar Magazine
Meli is currently back in the studio again working on a full length album with producer and label consultant Jeffrey Wood (Warner Bros).

“There's something about "Echo in a Valley" that manages to make us feel a connection, letting us be part of these series of ups and downs that make up the beauty of life. This song is a welcomed addition to not only her growing of work, but to the music scene in general. ”
