Carbon Leaf

These veteran Virginia-based indie rockers — who fuse alt-country, Celtic and folk influences — peaked commercially in 2004 with “Life Less Ordinary,” a Top Five single on the Billboard Adult Alternative Airplay charts. But much of the band’s best work has come in its latter years. Carbon Leaf re-recorded some of its earlier albums but also is in the midst of releasing The Gathering series, four EPs that emphasize the value of building community and embracing connections — a theme that couldn’t be more relevant as the band hits the road again and returns to Madison for the first time since 2009.
