Levi Patel - Sailing on the Light of a Passing Star

After over a decade of creating instrumental music, and three years of work, I've finally found my voice. My third full-length album, Sailing on the Light of a Passing Star, is now yours.

Thank you so much for listening, and I hope you enjoy it 🀍
