ABOUT LELAND SKLAR:

As bassist in The Section, the L.A. session collective that was to the '70s what The Wrecking Crew were to the '60s, Leland Sklar helped define the '70s singer/songwriter sound. With agile, elegant, unfailingly supportive basslines, the man with the waist-length beard could pump fuel into Jackson Browne's engine on the rocking "Running on Empty" and fall like a gentle summer shower onto James Taylor's "You've Got a Friend" with equal expertise. Leland has played on over 2,000 albums for Carole King, Linda Ronstadt, Toto, Lyle Lovett, Phil Collins, Hall & Oates, Warren Zevon, Rod Stewart, Jackson Browne, James Taylor and so many more.

Leland is also a part the band The Immediate Family featuring A-list session players of which we had on in season 2 and is featured in the new Magnolia Pictures film IMMEDIATE FAMILY & the band's albums including their latest Skin In The Game.
