The Album Leaf is the musical project led by American musician Jimmy LaValle, known for intimate, ambient and post‑rock recordings that blend piano, Rhodes, guitars, electronic textures and occasional strings.

Jimmy LaValle is the principal creator of The Album Leaf. In a Safe Place was recorded at Sundlaugin in Iceland with contributions from members of Sigur Rós; reviews mention guests including Kjartan and Gyda Valtysdottir and note LaValle's past associations with Tristeza, Locust, Gogogo Airheart and Black Heart Procession.

DeBaser reviews celebrate The Album Leaf's delicate, ambient/post‑rock sound and strong melodic sense. Reviews emphasize sparse arrangements, Icelandic recording connections, and guest contributions (including Sigur Rós members). The music is described as contemplative, melodic, and well suited to dawn or dusk listening.

For:Listeners of ambient/post‑rock, fans of Sigur Rós and melodic instrumental electronic music, soundtrack listeners.

 Well, ladies and gentlemen, here is a CD to listen to while someone for instance strokes your head, maybe sitting on a wide and thick carpet in front of a lit fireplace, not because there is a need for warmth, as this is a CD produced among Icelandic ice, but just to enjoy the reassuring crackling of the fire, which should merge with the music.

 A delicate album, with a crystalline and electronic sound to be listened to at dawn or dusk.
