Rising singer-songwriter Eli Lev to perform a free concert in Chilliwack next week

CHILLIWACK — Emerging singer-songwriter Eli Lev wrote a number of songs recently that were inspired by the events of COVID-19, music that explored a range of emotions that many people encountered during the worldwide pandemic.

He plans to share some of those heartfelt, authentic melodies during a free concert on Sunday, July 7 at 4 p.m. at Bricklayer Brewing (46126 Yale Road) in District 1881 in downtown Chilliwack.

Lev’s motto rings true for many thoughtful musicians and artists: “Making the world a smaller place, one song at a time.” Lev pens lyrics and melodies for everyday enlightenment, and crafts songs that resonate because they’re heartfelt, earthy, and offer the wisdom he’s gained through lifelong travel and self-discovery.

His latest project, an EP called “Walk.Talk.Dance.Sing,” was inspired by the events of the pandemic and explores the range of emotions that all types of people went through as a society and individuals.

His previous release, The Four Directions Project, imaginatively and intrepidly connects spheres and generations within a body of work that is distinctly uplifting, emotionally resonant, and down-to-earth. A cross between The Avett Brothers and The Lumineers, Lev has opened for both Shooter Jennings and Lee DeWyze, performed at The Kennedy Center and 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C., and toured extensively within the USA as well as abroad.
