Low Leaf is a Los Angeles-based multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, composer and producer. Through years of DIY recordings, she has defined her own unique sound by combining the classical piano training of her childhood with her own self-taught harp, guitar, and production skills, plus heartfelt singing – giving way to a very pure, unrestricted and constantly growing signature style. She ultimately seeks to be a voice of both nature and her Filipino ancestors alike, in hopes to heal and re-awaken the world as a universal family.

Famously collaborating with Flying Lotus on his Comogramma LP in 2010, she has since drawn comparisons to artists such as Hiatus Kaiyote and Gonja Sufi, and has played alongside the likes of Roy Ayers and Robert Glasper. She has toured Europe several times, including performances at Boom Town and Green Man. She has gained plaudits from the likes of Gilles Peterson, Fact Magazine and Boiler Room.

“Of the many names to have emerged from the beat scene boom that shook the Los Angeles underground in the late 2000s, few have managed to strike as unique a chord as Low Leaf, a female producer, singer and songwriter who combines harp, guitar and piano with electronic beats.” – Fact Magazine
