Lead Leaf!

high time i mention my other project, improv jam duo lead leaf. paul bowman plays the drums and i play guitar. we record live in a psychedelic basement, deep under the ground. we've released three recordings to date. from last.fm:
"Lead Leaf is the musical collaboration of drummer/literary critic Paul Bowman and singer/songwriter Brian Azevedo (who usually plays under the moniker Gold Leaf). The two friends are natives of Buellton, CA, where they lived next door to each other for some 7 or 8 years. After playing and recording in Paul’s brother’s bedroom for two years, the band relocated to a smelly, psychadelic basement in Berkeley, CA. The name Leaf Leaf is a combination of Brian Azevedo’s Gold Leaf moniker and Paul Bowman’s initials (PB), which correspond to the element Lead on the periodic table, hence Lead Leaf."





our first record, Nothing Special, was recorded live in buellton, california, at andrew's room. a limited pressing of 4 burned cds with special sharpie handwriting was released in spring 2009. it can be downloaded for free here

Haunted Country
was digitally released in winter 2009, after two sessions occuring in buellton and in berkeley. due for a re-release on cd this summer, 'til then download it here

released online in march 2010, A Playgue on Both Your Houses will also be getting a cd package treatment this summer. get it for free right here

in pursuit of the true spirit of rock n roll, noisy, dark, ambient, live guitar and drums and some singing and shouting, grooves, riffs, freak outs, dialogues, space jams, sing alongs, ghosts, cowboys, curses, spiders in every corner. try it but don't tell your parents
