'A Life Abbreviated' is the first single from Leo’s new EP 'We All Have Our Place, Part 1.' Conceptualised, written and produced in 2020, 'We All Have Our Place' is a 2-part EP dedicated to geographical nostalgia.

It started as an attempt to document feelings of memories that are deeply tied to our sense of place and seeing new sides of the world for the first time. That said, as the pandemic developed and got more extreme, the project also became a rumination on what it's like to be restricted in a way we'd never experienced as a society before.
