In July of 2012 A Leaf released their debut full length LP. Five restless souls, inhabiting 20-something bodies, play music together around the west coast area and it is called A Leaf. First and foremost in their endeavors comes the music; the seemingly calculated image and subtle swagger are merely who these boys are naturally. A Leaf has been labeled indie rock, melodic, ethereal, spiritual, “Expanding the parameters of modern folk psychedelia,” (Shannon Donahue). But at the heart of A Leaf lies timeless songs, soul-bleeding guitar work, a solid rhythm section, and image giving lyrics drenched in harmonies. Daley and Donahue grew up together and began writing music as kids. They planted some glam-rock/punk rock roots along with Bridges in a band when they were teens. They became friends with drummer Demuth while living in Los Angeles. They then all moved back to Washington, added Wambem on bass and A Leaf was realized circa 2010. In addition to being pretty nice guys, A Leaf creates music with a vibe that you won’t know you wanted to dwell in eternally until you hear it and feel it. N.L. Edwin July 2012
