Levi Chen's unique musical voice combines ambient electric guitar textures with the distinctive influence of traditional instruments from around the world, particularly China.

“Highly original yet profoundly peaceful... each listening yields new delights and serene feelings... these instruments sound as though they were made to go together, and Chen’s electric guitar is the glue that holds them all seamlessly together...”
NEW TIMES, SEATTLE WA

Levi Chen has been heard on over 350 radio stations, in over 30 countries. His latest recording "Alhambra," was the number #1 radio recording for October 2001, as reported on the New Age Voice "Airwaves" airplay charts. His music has been featured on national and international TV shows such as "Friends" and "Dangerous Minds".

Levi performs on one of the newest and one of the oldest stringed instruments known to man: A Fender Stratocaster electric guitar, and the Gu Zheng (Chinese Harp or Zither,) an ancient instrument played in China for 3,000 years. Levi's ability to express himself on these two instruments is all the more remarkable in that he performs on them simultaneously, a technique he calls 'solo duets'.
