Kansas City based Leved Town can reach down and give you that true Delta Blues sound as well as their favroite Chicago style blues.

He was seen sneaking into several clubs in the area to play with harp masters Little Mack Simmons, Eddie "The Cheif" Clearwater and John Primer. After moving to Lawrence, Kansas, he began studying with Lee McBee and now he teaches at the American Music Academy in Lawrence, Kansas.
