    Tony Levin & Stick Men

    Last night I went out to see a show at a local venue here in Eugene to see Tony Levin's band Stick Men. This is a three piece with Tony, his King Crimson bandmate/drummer Pat Mastelotto, and Markus Reuter. Tony exclusively plays the Chapman Stick in this band, while Markus plays an 8-string...

    Singer/Songwriter I worked with years ago just released EP with Tony Levin on bass!!

    This sounds stupid maybe, but since Levin is one of my idols, now I can say it took Tony Levin to replace me. hahahhaa I feel very good about this, specially when she texts me across the country to tell me about the release, and it sounds great, and she's going on about how the bassist isn't...

    Tony Levin's compressor on Resonator CD "Places to Go"

    Ok, I know this is a common question when it comes to Tony Levin, and I love all of the input, But what Compressor is he using on the Resonator CD specifically on the song "Places to Go"........I want that sound

    King Crimson/The Zappa Band

    So, I wish that this tour was gonna hit more cities, especially one in Texas. But that's probably not gonna happen so New Orleans it is! I know that Tony Levin will be on bass for King Crimson so I'm pretty stoked about that. However, I can not find any info on The Zappa Band, so I'm curious...

    Tony kills it with Crim...

    A tale of two cities...I saw King Crimson at LA’s fabled Greek Theater(almost 6K capacity)a few days ago, and last night at Denver’s historic Paramount theater, a classic 2,000 seater, both shows packed. Both nights, just brutal and nuanced at the same time, transcendent, the only thing I could...

    Muted Bass First? Tony Levin's Super Wonder Nappy-Bass Sound

    A scene in Peter Gabriel: So -- Classic Albums reveals the secret behind Tony Levin's wonderful sound on "Don't Give Up:" A diaper used to mute the strings, lol. I've used foam, of course, and even swimmer's ear plugs, but never a diaper!

    King Crimson 50th Anniversary tour...

    Just three US dates(NY/Chi/LA), basically the same band of the past few years(Levin, of course), but with four drummers. That clever Fripp, if he fired the drummer, nobody would know the difference. Tickets go on sale in a couple of days... DGM Live

    Well... not Tony Levin talking about the effect that is reverb, but him on the site where people sell gear... sometimes the gear is the aforementioned reverb effect, not that what he's talking about.... You get the idea. Video: Tony Levin on the Chapman Stick and Buying His First Electric Bass

    Tony Levin interview (June 2017)

    In the Court of Tony Levin FGPO: How much influence do your Crimson predecessors have on the way you approach the material? Levin: John Wetton had a wonderful ability to dig in harder and harder and make the bass sound change just by the way he played it, with the way he touched it. That’s...

    Tony Levin and the 3 Drummer Mix

    Saw King Crimson at the Chicago Theatre last night. Excellent seats. But if you ask me, Tony Levin's playing was largely muffled by the THREE huge drum sets most of the time. God I really miss Bill Bruford. 1/10th the gear, 10 times the sound! Do any of you guys play in multi-drummer bands...
