Leaf Yeh was awarded the 2nd place in the NCCU Golden Melody (Mandarin: 政大金旋獎), and released her first album "Departure" (Mandarin: 出發) in 2013. She was also a member of the underground band Roli.,[1] and shortly thereafter, under the name Leaf, she became the lead singer of Night Keepers (Mandarin: 守夜人), releasing "Nightland" (Mandarin: 永夜島) during her time in the group. She left the group in early 2017 and has since uploaded songs as a solo artist on the website StreetVoice.[2]

After the initial pop song "Departure", he gradually changed his music style from pop to indie music, and in 2018, he released his solo EP "Photosynthesis" (Mandarin: 光合) with "Leaf", and in the album "Birth&Death" (Mandarin: 生滅), he added elements of world music, which is rarely found in Taiwanese music, and mixed in many styles and instruments, such as: didgeridoo, sitar, handpan, etc. In 2022, her album Live Like Me won the "Best Composer" award at the 13th Golden Indie Music Awards[3]
