- ALL REVENUE FROM THIS PROJECT PLACED TOWARDS FAMILIES IN GAZA VIA MUTUAL AID ORG ART SAVES COLLECITVE

“All Bliss, Every Tree”
Leaving label boss/producer/composer Matthewdavid presents a long-form cut from the Los Angeles trio of Aaron Shaw, Carlos Niño, 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.

Notably, all revenue generated from this recording will be placed towards supporting families in Gaza through the Art Saves Collective, 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.
