Who are we? The band began at the beginning of 2007 firstly as a songwriting partnership between close friends Colin Baxter and Mark Strange who had previously worked together in another band. After putting together several songs and playing a host of acoustic gigs they felt the songs were strong enough to be performed at full band level...and so Mark's brother Alan was recruited on keyboards, Craig Millar on bass and Colin Boyle on drums. From here The Levings were born. The five members of The Levings bring together a number of styles and personal influences which explains the diverse sound of the band. Collectively influenced by xtc, wings, talking heads, beatles, dylan, television, squeeze, cream, weller, byrds, small faces, doors, beach boys among others, there are no hard and fast rules to the style of songs written by the band. The Levings feel that today's music listener doesn't like to be pigeon holed in the same way bands dislike it, so look to produce good music people want to hear rather than stick to a formula. Collectively, The Levings is in it's infancy, although individually bring together years of musical experience which will hopefully help shape the future.

Video Footage

All 5 clips now up for viewing. Would love to know your thoughts. Obviously not pro footage as I say but think they at least give an idea of our live performance and lets us see where we need to improve. Cheers SID The Levings

Live Video Clips

Hi Guys, Just uploaded a video taken at our recent Jamhouse gig in Edinburgh. Not a pro video by any means but you get the idea. Got another 4 to put up of other tracks but I think it's going to take about 3 days for them to upload! Cheers Sid The Levings

Thanks guys. Love your music. You guys rock...lots of good beats and melody and with feeling. Nice vocal harmonies. So much crappy music out there being served to the public at least here in the U.S. and the really good music doesn't see the light of day. "Daylight Breaking" is great...
Thanks again for the friendship
