Name: The Leaves Are Falling by Paul Gitlitz
Duration: 3 min 33 s
Description: Think of a cross between the Japanese Cherry Blossom festival and sitting inside watching the leaves falling off the bigleaf maple with a mug of green tea in hand.

During the pandemic, like everyone in entertainment, I found myself with a lot of free time. After weeks of gardening, baking bread, cooking meals from scratch and birdwatching, I went back to the pastime I know best—processing complicated feelings in difficult times through poetry set to music. The resulting album features themes of quiet contemplation, the cultivation of psychological resilience, and the sociology of revolution. Produced by Michael Rush, The Songbirds will be released one song at a time to your preferred streaming service over the course of 2022.
