Happy big time 70th birthday to my Dad @owenleslie1209 ! He’s usually the one taking the photos but here are a few we’ve managed to capture of him doing Dad things over the years.. I have no idea where I’d be without him and I sure wouldn’t want to find out! I love him and I’m proud to be his son. Happy 70th, Big O!

🌈🎶🤹🏼♀️🙏🏽🌀🎻
The @campwinnarainbow benefit show that took place at the beautiful @presidiotheatre in San Fransisco at the beginning of the month, was a magical evening that none of us will ever forget. To participate in a continuum of heroes and legends playing music to benefit the greater good is truly an awesome privilege that is not lost on us in the slightest. There is so much that we can all learn from the Great Wavy Gravy, and this time around his lesson was about “putting your good where it will do the most.”
It really doesn’t get any better for our musical family than to get the opportunity to play with so many of our elders in support of such a righteous cause. We can’t thank the legendary @steveearle@peterrowanmusic and @davidnelsonband enough for trusting us to back you on your songs, and for going with the flow and playing into our microphones - you’re the best! And to our humble heroes @susantedeschitrucks and @derektrucksstuff of @tedeschitrucksband - we are most honored to have gotten to play a few completely acoustic versions of some of our favorite tunes of yours. Your generosity of spirit and musicianship has filled our cups and found us all looking for the practice room! We can’t wait to cross paths with all of you again. Here are some pictures taken by the legendary @jayblakesberg and @susanamillman from this unforgettable experience! Special thank you to @dannyfromthehammy for doing such a great job on the sound. Our collective love and thanks to @jauleb , @thereal_wavygravy and everyone at @campwinnarainbow for such a fantastic night of music and community.

Happy heavenly birthday to the great Frank Wakefield! @daviddawggrisman said, “He split the bluegrass mandolin atom. Some of us, obviously, will never be the same again.” I was never the same after he invited me up and schooled me on “Rawhide” 20 years ago!
Thanks to my awesome dad @owenleslie1209 for taking me to this and countless other shows and for documenting it all! ❤️

Happy birthday to my love @phoebehuntmusic ! It’s been a doozy of a year and seeing her become such a loving mother and entrepreneurial titan simultaneously has been an immense joy and blessing. As Guela Bala said, “May the joy you give others so abundantly be yours a thousand fold!”
Happy birthday @ronniemccoury ! In addition to being THE baddest bluegrass mandolin player on the planet, Ronnie has always been so kind and encouraging to me, providing valuable life lessons in addition to a lifetime of musical inspiration. Cheers maestro! 🫡💜🎸🎶✨🙏🏻
