Bio:
At 27 years of age, this Danville, Ind., native is one of country music’s brightest and fastest-rising new entertainers. He proves it every show with energy and enthusiasm, creating a style of country music all his own.

When it comes to performing, Levi lives the country lifestyle he sings about. He works with country music fans everyday...in the field...selling corn and soybean seed to farmers for a living. "I spend my weekday’s visiting with growers and providing seed recommendations on their farms. They are my audience. That’s who I am."

When respected music critic, Tim Brouk, writes, "If Levi Riggs' voice was placed in the NFL draft, it would be selected in the first round," people take notice! When they hear Levi sing, they want more! When they see him perform, they are convinced -- Levi Riggs has tremendous star potential!

His first country single, "F-150," reached #19 on the New Music Weekly Country Charts in 2010 before he released his highly-anticipated, football-themed single, “Tailgate Time.” The song became so popular that Levi was asked to record custom versions for radio stations around the country including over 30 NFL and collegiate teams. To top it off, Levi was asked to perform for the 25th annual Leigh Steinberg VIP Super Bowl Party in Dallas, Tex., where more than 2,000 celebrities partied including Randy Travis, Serena Williams, Earl Campbell, Bob Lilly, Reverend Run of Run DMC, and more.

Levi brings a passion and excitement to the stage that sets him far apart from other artists. Levi has tireless drive and focus, a strong persevering attitude, and a passion for everything he does musically on stage and in the studio. In October of 2010, Levi wowed the audience as the headliner at Chicago's Country Music Festival Best Buy Honky Tonk Stage. Stage manager Erin Curley said, "Levi's performance was absolutely amazing." Many Chicago fans commented that it was one of the best performances they had witnessed in years.

In July of 2011, Levi opened up for country music superstar Justin Moore in Evansville, Ind., following Justin's recent #1 hit "If Heaven Wasn't So Far Away." The crowd of over 7,500 fans raved about the new original songs that Levi performed including "There's Still A Place For That," "Hillbilly Superstar," "Down Home Boy," and "My Best Friend's A Girl."

"It's hard for me as an artist to sit in the audience at a concert and just watch," says Riggs. "To me, all the fun happens on stage. It's just a rush and it's where I feel at home. I love to connect with my audience through my songwriting and energy. I always give my best effort at every show to perform at the highest level possible."

Riggs also brings uniqueness in that he writes much his own show material. "I love to write songs that my fans can sing along to. I want them to walk away from my show taking home a piece of me and what I’ve experienced in life," says Riggs.

As well-rounded as they come, Levi earned an honors degree from Purdue University in Agricultural Sales and Marketing in December of 2007. While at Purdue, he sang lead tenor for the world-famous Purdue Varsity Glee Club for four years and, for the last four years, has been lead vocalist for The Overtones, a Gospel Quartet based in Lafayette, Ind. Since 2003, Levi has logged more stage hours than virtually any artist in his age bracket, performing live over 600 times across the United States and overseas.

2011 marks a turning point in Riggs’ career. He’s nearly made Nashville, Tenn., his second home, making numerous trips to work with Grammy-winning songwriters, three of the industry’s top producers, and two of the best song pluggers in the business to offer a new and exciting album stacked with hit songs to his fans. "The best song wins," says Riggs. There is little room for doubt, equipped with the best songs, a seasoned voice, commanding stage presence, and a strong positive attitude and work ethic, Levi Riggs will succeed in country music.
