Dear Friends,
Levon is in the final stages of his battle with cancer. Please send your prayers and love to him as he makes his way through this part of his journey.

Thank you fans and music lovers who have made his life so filled with joy and celebration... he has loved nothing more than to play, to fill the room up with music, lay down the back beat, and make the people dance! He did it every time he took the stage...

We appreciate all the love and support and concern.
From his daughter Amy, and wife Sandy

R.I.P Levon
I feel fortunate to have seen Levon a few times over the years, with the the Band in 1974 in the Orange Bowl in Miami in 1974, The Great Northern Bluegrass Festival Mole Lake 1990, Telluride Bluegrass Festival 1994, and with Ringo Starr band in 1989 and two years ago Levon & friends doing a Ramble at the Ryman in Nashville.
