Left / Leaving 

Left/Leaving from Florianópolis, Brazil was formed in 2016 by longtime friends (Adriano Boaron, Joel Rosa, and Guilherme da Silva) composing in English, with influences from Punk/Rock/Indie/Alternative bands that had their peak in the late 90s and early 2000s such as Jawbreaker, Lemonheads, Samiam, Hot Water Music, Fugazi, and Weakerthans.

Now with a new lineup, they released their first album with 11 tracks (2 instrumental) and 30 minutes long, and with songs with varied sounds between punk rock, alt-rock, indie, folk, post rock, etc. It was produced by Joel Rosa and Left/Leaving at Estúdio Urbano between February 2020 and July 2024.

They also released a music video and a making of about the production of this album on YouTube supported by the Paulo Gustavo SC D + 12/2023 incentive law, in addition to a lecture on online music production presented on 11/7/24 by vocalist and composer Joel Rosa. The band continues to perform and compose new material.
