Adam Levy is best known for his tenure as the featured guitarist in Norah Jones' Handsome Band. He played on her breakout 2002 disk Come Away with Me, her '04 follow-up Feels Like Home, and her latest CD Not Too Late. In his downtime between steady gigs with Jones, Levy has been onstage and/or in the studio with Rosanne Cash, Amos Lee, M. Ward, and up-and-coming Aussie artist Eran James.
In addition to Levy's skills as a player, he is a gifted songwriter. He penned "In the Morning" for Jones' Feels Like Home, and other artists have recorded his songs as well. There's no doubt, though, that the best way to hear Levy's folk/pop/blues gems is straight from the source.

Washing Day is a gem
author: John Campbell
Sliding in and out of genres, I think Levy has a gem here.
Washing day and I Shot Her Down are standout tracks on the album with Washing Day, co-written with ambeR Rubarth, winning a Songwriting award and I Shot Her Down just a flat out Rock Tune that evokes thoughts of a Retired Federal Agent chasing down a cold-blooded killer and re-telling the story 20 years later via this song.
Washing Day evokes memories of those 1980s Levis commercials with Lou Reed and Bruce Willis and deserves a video to celebrate the sadness it has and Levy's ability to have the song offer hope of a new beginning in the future. With someone else.
Having met and spoken with Adam personally I can say he's warm and genuine and loved by many.
