Levi Riggs was recently signed to the elite roster of international, Country/Americana music label Lure Records, home of such legendary performers as Charlie Louvin, Van Howard, The Tennessee Three, Jack Green, and Ernie Ashworth. The award-winning and Hall of Fame executives at the helm of Lure Records, Todd Washburn and Ken Pearson, two names synonymous with music industry success, were immediately impressed with Levi’s vocal qualities and capabilities as a writer.

They claim, “It takes a lot more than a guitar and a song…it takes talent. REAL talent.” These well-known music industry pros believe Levi Riggs has what it takes, and are backing him up all the way.

For Levi, who grew up in rural Indiana, Country music is home. “To me, Country music is the voice of America. It speaks to our daily life. At my shows, I sing rockin’ fun songs and love songs. I thank our veteran’s for protecting our freedom and I sing ‘How Great Thou Art’ to thank God for His blessings.”

With the release of their Greatest Hits album, “Believers Never Die”, this week, the band, Fall Out Boy, they are going on an indefinite hiatus. This doesn’t seem to surprise many of their fans. The band’s decision to go on a temporary break has been hinted for months. Their spokesperson has this statement to say: “It’s a break with an indefinite date when they’re coming back.”

Sounds like the question of when they will be back or if they will be back together is really hanging out there.

It’s been said that the band members would like to pursue personal endeavors, after eight years of hardwork, rising to the top as the Kings of Emo.

Emerging from Chicago’s underground scene, the Fall Out Boy quickly became a pop favorite with the success of their debut album, ‘From Under The Cork Tree’, which had become a worldwide hit. After this album’s release, the band went on to make two more albums and have raked in more awards than they could imagine.

But with the arrest of its lead singer Pat Stump early this year, rumors of the band breaking up have surfaced. The rumor has been pacified when the band announced the release of their Greatest Hits.

Though, now it’s confirmed. The winds have changed.

Pete Wentz is going to be busy with his Clandestine Industries, a fashion brand and is probably moving to New York to support his wife, Ashley Simpson, who will be headlining in Broadway. Joe Trohman is working on a side project and will be doing a lot of metal music. Andy Hurley also has his own fashion line, F*CKCITY, to focus on and may be starting his own music label.
