ARTIST LEVI KREIS STARS AS JERRY LEE LEWIS IN THE MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET AND 
CELEBRATES HIS #1 VIDEO ON LOGO WITH AN EXCLUSIVE iTUNES RELEASE FOR FANS

LEVI KREIS is having one amazing year.   At the heels of promoting his 
sophomore release "The Gospel According To Levi," Levi has been cast as Jerry Lee 
Lewis in "The Million Dollar Quartet."  This original rock and roll musical 
revue wirtten by internationally acclaimed rock-and-roll author Collin Escott, is 
playing at The Everett Performing Arts Center near Seattle, WA between 
November 2nd - November 25th.   Show details below.   "The Million Dollar Quartet" 
has already made over one million dollars at its run at the Francis J. Gaudette 
Theatre in Issaquah, WA and there are already discussion to take the show out 
to the rest of the country as early as March 2008.

During the time of Levi performing as Jerry Lee Lewis, his video single 
"We're Okay" reached #1 on LOGO's The Click List and has stayed in the top spot for 
over 5 weeks in a row.   As a thank you to the fans for getting him to #1, 
Levi is releasing an exclusive iTunes release called "Bygones" this winter.   
"Bygones" includes nine of Levi's very first recordings after moving to Los 
Angeles in 1997 which has led him now to enjoy international success.   Levi wants 
fans to experience first hand the fumblings and finds of his humbling 
beginnings.   A definite collector's item for fans just in time for the holidays.

Levi's career highlights include touring in the national cast of "RENT" as 
Roger, being featured on Donald Trump's "The Apprentice" and conquering much of 
the country in 2006 with his debut record "One Of The Ones."   With song 
placements on "Days Of Our Lives" and "The Young And The Restless" and movies such 
as "Kiss The Bride,"  Levi has shared the stage with Quincy Jones, Herbie 
Hancock, Snoop Dog and Collective Soul.   He opened for Cyndi Lauper at Wrigley 
Field during the closing ceremonies of Gay Games Chicago in 06 during a national 
tour sponsored by Gay.com.   Levi also played Matthew McConaughey's brother 
in Liongate's 2001 film "Frailty." 

Levi's third studio release "Introducing Levi Kreis" is slated for spring of 
2008.   Mr. Kreis has finally come into his own as a soulful piano man, with a 
sound that is nostalgic of his gospel roots and a presentation that is 
southern class.  This album promises to be the most defined chapter in this young 
singer/songwriters budding career.

is located at 2710 Wetmore Avenue in Everett, WA.   For more information call 
425-257-8600 or check out www.villagetheatre.org.   Ticket prices range from

Here's what publications are saying about Levi's performance...

"It's a joy to watch such talented musicians, performing classic hits, but if 
one could be said to stand out among the standouts, Levi Kreis is an amazing 
piano man. His exuberance is unstoppable. He has apparently injured himself, 
after doing a stunt of jumping over the piano, so he's not performing that 
stunt anymore. I don't think we really need him to hurt himself for our 
entertainment! He's just as fun without it." - Seattle Times

"The unabashed star of the show is Levi Kreis's Lewis, an arrogant bastard 
who revels in his own talent. Kreis's leg is in a brace—he threw out his knee in 
an earlier performance after vaulting over the piano—but his Southern-fried 
bravura is still magnificent." - The Stranger Magazine

"As Lewis, Kreis is especially amazing: conceited, mouthy, athletic, witty, 
goofy and a fantastic piano man." 
- Seattle Pi Review
