Levon Helm from Elaine, Arkansas. His real name is Mark Lavon Helm and according to his biography, his Canadian band mates kept calling him ‘Levon’ The name stuck and a little history was in the making.

The Band played every small town and Canadian Hockey arena, constantly on the road.

Levon learned about our differences, and liked his adopted home.

“Ophelia” is sung by Levon as is most of the Southern rock tunes that the Band recorded.

Levon died of Cancer. A heavy smoker he passed away at age 71.
