ELECTROPOP ARTIST LEV RETURNS WITH A NEW SINGLE

LEV wants to celebrate. The indie electro pop artist released her first new music in two years, and the song may be her most personal work yet. “It Was U” is the result of a four-year artistic and personal journey that began with the artist escaping label drama and ended with her finding a new sound.

Her career took an unexpected turn in 2016, when label drama delayed her long-awaited full-length album. Yet LEV bounced back, focusing her sights on personal growth and an enhanced dance sound that modern pop fans and lovers of 70s and 80s music will undoubtedly enjoy.“I have been in search of a producer that I have chemistry with, someone that understands me and my process,” LEV says. She found that with producer Josh Goode.

LEV enjoyed fine-tuning the track with Goode, and coveted the opportunity to explore her personal trials via this new track. Ultimately, “It Was U” is a story of triumph, heralding
