“All Bliss, Every Tree”
🌳Leaving label boss/producer/composer presents a long-form cut from the Los Angeles trio of Aaron Shaw , , and himself. The 13-minute deep listening collage of zither, saxophone, and percussion was constructed through a process of re-sampling source material from the trio’s archive of live LA community concert recordings and studio sessions. A limited edition physical variant of hand-marbled cassettes has been made available with additional exclusive b-side material, not available on streaming platforms - only at leavingrecords.com +

🍉Notably, all revenue generated from this recording will be placed towards supporting families in Gaza through the Los Angeles-based Mutual Aid Org , a grassroots initiative that connects artists, creatives, and activists around the world with displaced families in Gaza.
🎷Furthermore, Leaving is beyond honored to officially reveal that Aaron Shaw, the lead saxophonist here on “All Bliss, Every Tree”, will be releasing his full-length solo debut album on Leaving Records in the first quarter of 2026.
