Carbon Leaf shares folk-infused indie rock rooted in rich harmonies and a blend of acoustic and electric sounds. The Richmond, Virginia group marks a new chapter with Time is the Playground, a 12 song collection reflecting on time, love, and personal growth. Their history stretches from college cover band beginnings to a national breakthrough with The Boxer, which earned recognition at the American Music Awards and opened the door to wide radio play. With more than 3,500 energetic performances, the band pairs storytelling with melody while steering its own path. After charting albums with Vanguard Records, they returned to full independence, recording at their home-built Two Car Studio and releasing music on their Constant Ivy imprint, even re-recording earlier albums to regain rights. The new material ranges from intimate reflections to the era-tinged rush of Backmask 1983, where gritty guitar and bright synths nod to both analog memories and digital horizons. Tireless touring remains central to their approach as they showcase their first full-length album in ten years.
