Originally from Louisiana by way of Nashville, Tenn., The Levees combine high energy, soulful and dynamic vocals, expert musicianship, and good-old fun as hallmarks of their live show. In fact, the Nashville Scene got it right when they wrote, “(The Levees) smashed the quiet smoky vibe with their rumbling Louisiana swamp rock” during the band’s debut show.

With well-crafted songs featuring appealing characters in real situations, these four musicians blend the various strains of rock n’ roll, country, blues, southern gospel, zydeco, and bluegrass born in their own backyards to deliver a style and sound exclusive to them. The Levees take their name from the earthen mounds built to keep rivers from flooding and are specific to the state from which the band draws its musical influences. Adam Jones (vocals/trombone), James Cook (vocals/bass), Dan Cohen (vocals/guitar), and Derek Mixon (drums/percussion) formed the band in Nashville, Tenn. in 2006.
