"Messages is the most personal song I've ever written. After my dad took his own life in 2021, I was completely broken and I used to loop old voicemails just to hear his voice, trying to piece together the last things he said like clues. I needed to create something positive out of the despair, and Messages is my attempt at that. It's got an uplifting sense of euphoria to the sonics, which strangely makes me happy when we're playing it, which is mental, but I guess it kind of works. Or it does for me at least. Heccy our drummer, also lost his cousin to suicide, and my Dad was like his 2nd Dad, so it's something that feels really close to our hearts as a band. We've partnered up with CALM, which is an amazing charity that gives support to people in mental distress. We're giving away the only 3 test pressings of our debut album “Entropy”. We smashed through our target in less than three hours so we decided to double it, which we are all feeling pretty hyped about. Otherwise, the reaction we've had to the track so far has been unbelievable, and we really hope it helps as many people as possible."
LEAP will be heading out for The Entropy Tour starting this October with support coming from Tally Spear.

As a musician, I really connected with the raw emotion in Leap's new single "Messages." It actually reminded me of the frustration I felt when my home studio monitors died last month, and I had to research replacements for days. I spent hours reading Vizio reviews from other artists, and their honest feedback helped me avoid a costly mistake. Finding that kind of genuine community insight is so valuable for us creatives on a budget. Thanks for sharing this track; it’s exactly the kind of powerful music that inspires me to keep creating.
