The family tree - the leaves

"For those already enamored of The Family Tree, The Leaves is a pleasing and familiar conclusion, though getting invested in Cooper's art may take a bit of work".

"This record marks the final instalment in Ben Cooper's trilogy of deep, thoughtful albums chronicling a fictional 19th century Southern family, the Northcotes. It's not as pretentious as it sounds, with previous LPs The Roots and The Branches full of unassuming, gently beautiful songs in a modern folk vein, charting an often-cryptic course through the Faulknerian melodramas of this clan. The Leaves sticks to the template, with several songs sounding like Sufjan Stevens circa 2005".
