Levi is opening for Los Lonely Boys at Red Rocks on April 13!  We wanted to give him a proper sendoff for this momentous occasion!

Steeped in musical lessons as far back as teaching himself guitar at nine years old from a launchpad of the three Kings and Stevie Ray Vaughn, Levi Platero's leads and songwriting reflect a lifetime absorbing music. 

Platero is from the Navajo Nation in the Southwest. His family band, The Plateros, emerged on the music scene in 2004 as a blues rock power trio compared to the likes of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Los Lonely Boys and ZZ Top. After a decade of touring the US with his family band, and a one-year run as a member of Indigenous, Levi decided it was time to get back to his own music as a solo artist. He then recruited a new band, began touring, and released a self-titled EP featuring the single "Take Me Back," which went on to win the 2016 NAMA (Native American Music Award) for Best Blues.

Platero is a great example of a guitar player with the gift of guitar playing intuition of a much more experienced player. His quiet nature is unleashed in a style that mixes a spectrum of Texas blues and vintage rock to modern guitar heroes such as Eric Johnson and Steve Vai. With a captivating live show, he ranges from flurries of guitar acrobatics all the way down to soulful expressiveness.


Renowned for his soulful skills on both electric and acoustic blues guitar, Chris Dracup is well-versed in various musical genres. He pays homage to the southern delta blues tradition through his acoustic slide guitar work. Additionally, his talent for original songwriting and electric live performances have earned him praise from both critics and fans, establishing a dedicated following in the Southwest. Dracup's latest sonic exploration, Funk of the West, is a high-energy, six-piece dance band which fuses authentic American blues and funk with the infectious rhythms of African polyrhythms.
