about

Original music for Independent Feature Film, Dead Draw

www.deaddrawmovie.com

Chicago based singer-songwriter Becky Levi teamed up with Chicago’s infamous Jim Becker to create an exclusive original soundtrack for Dead Draw. Becker is a musician, producer, and sound engineer who has played around the world since the 1980s. He is currently a touring member of Iron and Wine and is infamously known for his band Califone. He has also shared the stage with Neko Case and Wilco. Levi’s love for traditional music took her to Southwest Virginia and the deserts of West Africa where she immersed herself in studying roots music. In 2015 she performed and recorded with Chicago folk band Glass Mountain, sharing the stage with Frank Fairfield, Larry Keel Experience and Lindsay Lou and the Flatbellys.

Becker and Levi have a passion for both traditional and modern music along with a talent for producing authentic recordings to match the sounds of the 1950's. With their vintage recording techniques, musicianship, and a little help from some of Chicago’s best players these two mastered songs with an early country sound. Together, they set the stage for Dead Draw’s Spaghetti Western tone in modern day life.
