Default Leland Sklar

Lee puts out wonderful little videos almost daily. He just kicked off a summer tour with Lyle Lovett and I find his behind-the-scenes clips on the touring life fascinating.

I started watching him when he took that fall about a year ago and mussed his face up pretty good. That dude has enough stories to last many years, I'm sure

We love his videos! A wonderful human being and he's had such a bountiful career...and the man's still going strong!

Leland is an inspiration in how to live a wholly meaningful life, no matter what your vocation.

Thanks for sharing (and continuing to share) your insights and memories of playing with the greats, and favorite stories and songs, especially during Covid.

You raised up our spirits during this horrible pandemic.

Rock On, Leland!

Long may you run! (Did he play on that, too??)
