I tried to gain a higher resolution but was unable, i will continue to try and re-upload if i can.
Any other info on this video is appreciated! Thank you to the reddit user who helped me obtain this gem.
Man, he came such a long way from "dont let the world swallow you" to "Lets get swallowed whole". Truely beautiful musicianship!
Oh wow damn
😭💙💜🤍
💜💜💜
True.!! 😂😂😂😂😂
I wonder how many Easter eggs like this there are through ST music. As more of Blacklit Canopy music comes out I wonder if we will continue to find ties to his past in his current music. ❤
This is our secret club. Enjoy it while it lasts
Yep
Our secret canopies
Worship!
@twoexoticdancers4695 the ancient can of peas 🫛 😄
1 quick google search and you know,yet i respect the privacy of an band members and i would love to keep it that way.
This man is so talented. He should start a metal band

😂😂😂😂😂😂❤🎉
Maybe slee....
I just cackled
I’m noticing Leo used to sing primarily in falsetto and it’s beautiful but I’m so glad he started using his lower range because it’s fucking incredible
This man pursuing music for 10 + years and not giving up on his passion! Admirable.
It really gives me hope 🥲
Leo is so incredibly talented and beautiful inside and out. We are so lucky to be living at the same time as his art.
Yes oh yes! ❤
It's like being alive during the renaissance I feel very lucky. ☘️😊
I agree. A unique and beautiful voice. Lots of potential.
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that this lad is one of the most talented musicians of our time
Not a "missing limb" though 😅
Not even remotely true. But he does do interesting and compelling music that does speak to a lot of people.
He’s probably the most talented musician to come out of the UK in the last 10 years
@@ToveriJurivery true - which of his contemporaries can hold a candle to him?
@@ToveriJurias a musician I also vehemently disagree with your statement.
Truly a sacred moment captured in time
Worship
The filming is actually terrible. But im glad it exists still
@@Fqbbpgo figure, this video was probably resurfaced from 10-12 years ago
@@ac.demitri of course, I was referring to the person with the camera. Seems to forget how tall Leo is…
Cant believe a man so ridiculously talented like him exists. Worship
*Friendly Reminder*
Guys, keep the comments with in the realms of the music. Anything regarding speculation of their relationship or anything else will be deleted. I was traveling and missed a few comment strings that should have been gone a while ago. If you're here to enjoy the music great, that's why i put it up. But please be respectful. I don't want to see any negative comments about Gemma. I would like to leave commenting open as long as possible until its no longer viable to do so. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing!!
thank you so much for sharing this 🙏 do you have more? also out of curiosity why have i never seen this one before? i'm so confused lol
Looks like someone screen grabbed it from either an old FB post, RUclips vid, or from the original SoundCloud upload from the Bristol Live Room, not quite sure.... but it was sitting in someones Dropbox until they decided to share it recently. Right now just the audio for it exist on Soundcloud.
@@Ghostwith_themost thank you for responding!
Worship
Leo is such a blessing to the world. I will never forget how much peace he has given me through his art
Worship
You aren't wrong, I lost my grandfather in October, we were incredibly close. Sleep Token has kept me from going under mentally, I never realised what music can do for you until now.
So good to be alive. And so proud this kid didn't gave up and became who he is today. We can see it's not an overnight thing, the work was always done.
I really like there isn't disrespectful people around here and we can enjoy these branches of time, of history thehehe
Have a nice day everyone ❤
I'm so glad to get these lost memories found and shared. So grateful that I am living in a universe where he exists.
He looks very skinny here, and I can see the sadness throught his eyes. Hope this beautiful soul is happy with all his achivements ❤
And 4 years later he's in Atlanta, Georgia and I'm blown away by this "unknown" opening act 🙌 The rest is history 🙏
Literally everything this man touches turns to diamonds
Diamonds in the trees..
pentagrams in the night sky…
Lipstick, chemtrails, red flags, pink nails…
you have to admit that he had to go through some damn hard times to get to this point. He deserves this success. I hope that it gives him the peace and love he needs to heal from inside
@@cowboysamurai8192 With one eye on the door, other eye on a rail...
I've found it increasingly harder to put into words what his music and lyrics stir in me. Every week, I'm finding a new, hidden masterpiece and nearly every single one speaks to something in me. Thank you, Leo! Your music has moved me away from dark places, and I have you to thank for saving my life.
❤❤❤
Beautifully put WORSHIP X
His voice brings me so much peace. I don’t understand it, but I’m grateful for it
Gosh he's such a fucking beautiful creation of nature. Glad to be living in a world with him
You can see his passion just bursting to come out. As if he needs to belt, scream, and weep. So much love for this beautiful human. 🖤
Massive talent this man is.
Thank you Sleep for awakening something beautiful and sinister in this anomaly...
This guy should get into a full band, he's got potential ;)
Agreed

Everyone talking about his voice (don’t get me wrong, it’s amazing) but hers is also 🔥
I bet someone will do a documentary on his life and music someday.
dudes a legend in the making
It's super interesting to see how much he's grown as a musician and especially a singer. If I didn't know who he was, I don't think I would've recognized his voice because his style changed so much. I mean, he was still spectacular, but you can also see that he hadn't quite found his own voice just yet.
Sleep picked the right representation. Worship.
His own voice?! Whose voice is that then? He was younger and here singing folk like songs with minimal production and instruments. The boy’s been singing since birth probably and voice and style will change along the years. This is his head voice which you can still hear a lot nowadays.
@Fqbbp I'm not referring to the style of music or the production value nor to him using head voice. It's just that you can hear how he's grown more confident in using his own unique style of intonation, phrasing, which vowels or consonants to emphasize and so on that makes his voice stand out anywhere. That's what I mean by "own voice". I'd even say that his style has become iconic enough that a new generation of singers now tries to imitate him. Another example of a truly unique and groundbreaking style could be, for example, Michael Jackson.
I would never have chosen to see this on my own but I guess something in the algorithm felt I needed to finally see 😭
Seriously!
I was fortunate enough to find out two years ago. After hours and hours on redit searching "who is you know who" someone deep down in the reddit abyss said, "Im a UK musician in the scene. It's definitely Leo Faulkner" so I searched Leo Faulkner and found Backlit Canopy. Once i heard his voice I knew it was he who shall not be named. Glad to I dscover his past endeavors. As of 2 years ago, all of his Backlit Canopy songs were available for free on Soundcloud. That may have changed.
Actually the Blacklit Canopy RUclips page was very recently updated with remastered version of the BC EP. Hmmm. It's also available on Spotify for download. Follow the 🦋
this is one of those songs you listen when you're drinking tea next to the fireplace with your eyes closed and just feel
I listen to thuís drunk an depressed... and it gives me hope
omg I love this song ❤️ and just seeing him up there, pre ST, no mask, just him..Leo..gives me goosebumps..and this footage is just WOW. I'm getting emotional just watching it. Please tell me you have more treasures hidden away, this is golden, thank you 🫶🏻
It’s still the autumn leaves these ancient canopy’s we used to lay beneath. (Coincidence I think not)
A blacklit paradise
Worship
I’m not religious but this song makes me want to drop to my knees and pray for just days on end.
#Worship
"No one cared about me until i put on the mask"
clever =)
Dudee I love this comment
It's amazing to see what he has built up over the last few years. He's so talented and has definitely become more confident on stage, even though he's wearing a mask, but he's still the same man with an innate gift.
If I'd know his music existed then, I'd fallen for him the same way I have now 🖤
What a gift it is to be alive at the same time as this man 😭
I cant describe how much this man's art has influenced my life. For a lucky coincidence my son has his name. On clear purpose his art is inked on my skin for eternity. Thanks Leo!
Oh. My. God. 😮
I can't even believe what I'm watching right now.
Worship 🙏
The man, the myth, the legend. Talented in many ways and beyond words. Thankful for this lovely creature 🙌
"I dine in silence on bread ground from hardship
The easier it is the more it tastes like ash"
Straight from the soul through the vehicle of language.
What a person does with their pain, determines their journey. Thank you for turning your pain into power with sharing❤😊 thank you also for sharing this.
How wonderful it is to see this journey
Can’t believe he’s him. Man. This was good to hear. Still 🔥
His songs touch my heart in ways no other songs do
God, he's so beautiful, I will forever adore this man.
Thanks so much for uploading this rare moment. His voice has improved a lot since then. I love to hear those two sing.
I love how many of these songs come full circle with his later work.
I...wasn't expecting this song to have a live version of it too! It's exciting to be one of the few people knowing this even exist. 🖤
Her voice is beautiful ❤️
Why do I cry every time I look at him 😍
Don't let the world swallow you. Just let it....take a bite.
This is absolutely golden.
There are people who play music, and there are people who create music and then there are those who ARE music. To me it is almost like these types of artist channel something from another dimension almost as if they are a portal for this magical melody that is being called from this dimension. If you notice when people like this are performing it almost seems like something other worldly is happening.
I love this, thank you for commenting.
This guy was created to be music ❤
this man could start a cult with such a voice
Im following the cult.
Lol
Worship
Indeed 😉
honestly seeing this made me feel better about who is now, ❤what a brilliant guy.
I so hope that one day we get the backstory of the evolution that took him from this to where he is now.
Their voices go so well together.. truly beautiful
It’s like somebody out there knows that it is now again the perfect time for the world to be let it… after all that excitement touring, it’s like back home, in his bedroom, alone, awake till 4 am, being real. ❤
Love watching old videos and seeing the passion he had and still has. Going from this to selling out arenas. Should give you all motivation to never give up and to know nothing is ever to big for you!
I hope he comes back to this project. Every song is amazing. Would love to see this live
Why does it feel like I'm taking emotional damage and healing simultaneously??
Duuuuude thank you so much for sharing this gem. Was really missing them after 2 stops of the recent tour. Much love 🙏
He is truly a treasure in this world ❤️ and has my whole heart
No matter what he sings there is passion and emotion. Truly gifted. I’m sure hard work too.
crying about this at 2 in the morning. man, we're so lucky. 🖤 thanks for the upload. :)
their voices blend like honey and blackberries - sweet and smooth and tart and dark and rich and stitched together by melted sugar and sunlight leaving a red smear in the bowl
I was listening to them nonstop and RUclips recommended this..though it was uploaded only three days ago .. 🤩😍
Leo, you are so loved ❤
I'm just a Worshipper probably like most in the comments, but I just want to give a big shout out to Gemma for this one. She gave just as much to this song and this performance.
I actually went and bought the little Blacklit Canopy EP on Bandcamp after discovering this as I really like this song in it's own right. While you can obviously hear things from a certain singer that you'll hear again in a certain band that came after this, the combination of the two singers in BC was definitely nice for what it was.
this is the best performance we’ve seen so far
Thank you for taking the time to upload these ethereal snippets into Leo's world❤
His voice is so beautiful and mesmerising 😆🖤
Best time spent on RUclips since I found all these Secrets ❤
I am so thankful I stumbled upon this!
Awesome. As soon as this dude opens his mouth, it's just magic.
This is so different from his current style but just as good, he evolved so well but like he was killing it that long ago, that young. What is it that he cannot do??
so proud of how far you've come.
Wow ! His voice was already perfection back then. So proud he didn't gave up on his dreams ❤
What a beautiful voice this girl has wow
PURE TALENT ❤ im glad he got what he deserves now
I’m sobbing, this song is so beautiful 😢
The guy looks like he wants to go where nobody else will ever go
AWESOME .!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥

Wonderful song. Thanks for uploading.
MY FAVORITE BLACKLIT SONGGGG
Yay!
The withering of a soul. Pained deep beyond the heart. A decending spirit fell from the stars. Blackened to the core. Pain envelopes the mass of what used to be. A disease burdened by reality.
Leo is literally so beautiful inside and out. Gives me chills every single time.
Thank you!!! This is so beautiful
This is not just special because of who it is, it's also such a beautiful song.
never seen this one, thank you sm :') one of my all time favorite songs
These two do sound great though.. starting to enjoy this early stuff it growns on you.
Ah this is lovely, I could almost go to Sleep.
Still sounds good without auto tune and massive production. Glad he found his niche in ST. That band is sick!!!
Just beautiful 🖤🖤 . Their voices harmonise so perfectly.
Leo has the most beautiful voice I’ve ever heard 🖤
Exactly the same feeling. The most beautiful voice I've ever heard in my 36 years
Hey Leo, thanks for showing someone like me that if I'm honest and I try, maybe there could be a chance for me too.
Is Gemma still performing too? She had a beautiful voice ❤
I could hear this playing while watching the stars. Beneath those ancient canopies.
With pentagrams in the night skies?
@@laravermillion3875 and diamonds in the trees.
What a voice.... he's wonderful ❤️
Absolutely beautiful! What a tearjerker! 🥲🖤🥀
Forever a fav of both of their voices, Gemma sounds perfect in this song.
That was beautiful ❤
