The Album Leaf has been making its mark as a soft-spoken innovator steadily and surely since 1999. One year after forming the influential San Diego instrumental group Tristeza, songwriter & multi-instrumentalist Jimmy LaValle founded The Album Leaf, a solo studio project turned full-fledged live band.

'Between Waves' is The Album Leaf's first full-length record to be recorded with the band's current lineup. From the moody evolution of 'Glimmering Lights' to the wistful hip-hop stylings of 'A New Soul' and beyond, 'Between Waves' is The Album Leaf at its most inventive, most confident, and most impressive.
