Words can't describe the beauty in it 🥰🎶♾️🥰

sometimes it's scary but it's still just you and me (Leaving Laurel Revisit)

“It all began when one of us was Leaving Laurel”.

For Leaving Laurel, their music is a story of an old friendship that over many years, almost accidentally, blossomed into a musical collaboration.

Birthed in late 2019, American artist Pierce Fulton and Canadian producer Gordon Huntley together as Leaving Laurel have developed a penchant for introspective melodic electronic music.

Inspired by their time together in the hills of Laurel Canyon, and from their formative experiments recording into old cassette tape players, the project materialized seemingly out of thin air - something neither of them knew they were looking for.

Chasing the nostalgic sound that came from their first collaborations, the pair finished their debut self-titled album at the start of 2021, just prior to a horrible tragedy.

Pierce passed away in April of 2021 after a tragic struggle with his mental health. The album is dedicated to his memory, and has come to represent much more than two friends making music together in the Laurel Canyon neighborhood of Los Angeles.  

After some time to reflect, Gordon decided to collect the pieces of the remaining music the duo had started, and to carry on with the project.

In the fall of 2021, Leaving Laurel played their first shows since the formation of the project, with Pierce’s older brother Griff taking Pierce’s place for their DJ sets.
