This is a website dedicated to local musicians who chose their own musical destiny. Their decision to pursue music professionally, or not to pursue it as more than just a hobby is what has brought their unique stories to us. The title "When the Levee Breaks" is not only a Led Zeppelin song, but it also describes how these people made such tough decisions regarding their lives and the music they love to play. When a levee breaks, there is often no turning back. This is just like when these people made tough decisions about their continuance of pursuing music; whether this was in their degree plan, a possible career, or only playing open mic nights in order to focus on pursuing another career. Just like when the levee breaks, there is often no turning back from the decisions that are made and this is what ultimately defines them and their lives, even beyond the music.
Make sure you check out the stories throughout the site. We have interviewed many exceptional musicians and have heard their stories. We now share pieces of their lives with you. All videos are available in HD.
