Here’s more about Mendeleyev.
* On Facebook, he describes himself as a multi-instrumental producer and Los Angeles based singer-songwriter spreading funky soul-folk all over the world.
* He’s also released four singles that are available on iTunes — “Breaking It” from 2017 and “Breaking Free,” “Pure” and “If I Can’t Be Free” from last year.
* In his Facebook bio, Mendeleyev writes that he started playing guitar at age 3 and eventually became proficient on piano, bass guitar and drums as well.
* He went on to attend the Berklee School of Music, graduated and “has barely stopped moving since.”
* The moment that inspired him to become a musician came when he attended a sold-out show at the Arlington Theatre in Santa Barbara. He was invited on-stage to sing Sublime’s “What I Got” with Michael Franti and Jack Johnson. “In that moment, I knew I wanted to perform.”
* He and his bands played venues around Santa Barbara, but Mendeleyev also toured Europe with a band called Travelers that included his brother and Berklee classmates.
* And, in the summer of 2010, he played acoustic guitar and sang for people all over Africa and India, he says.
* In a March interview with VoyageLA, he says his full name is Mendeleyev Galileo Einstein Pythagoras Darwin Euclid Leonardo Allan-Blitz. He says he’s named after his parents’ favorite scientists. He grew up in Santa Barbara with hippie parents. For short, he goes by “Lev.”
* And here’s what he says about his music: “My message IS inspiration. Plain and simple… I get people singing together. No matter where I am. I want to keep inspiring everyone I am around from my students to my fellow musicians. My goal is inspire more people to play more music. In order to do that I strive to be as musically diverse as possible.”
