The Album Leaf biography
Coming from Southern California, Jimmy LaValle's music may come as a shock. Having traveled through various rock bands, 1999 brought the genesis of his solo work as THE ABLUM LEAF. THE ALBUM LEAF is reminiscant of SIGUR ROS, with a strong electronic element, somewhat similar to THE NOTWIST.

His most recent, "In a Safe Place," is a fine work. The uses of classical insturments with electronic sound is truly magnificent. What few vocals there are are quite haunting, yet refreshingly warm and friendly. Although several songs can be listened to on their own, the album works best when listened to fully.

"In a Safe Place" is a highly recommened piece of experimental prog and should find ample playing time next to SIGUR ROS's "Takk".
