About
Bernard Matthew Leadon III ( LED-ən; born July 19, 1947) is an American singer, musician, songwriter, and founding member of Eagles, for which he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998. Prior to Eagles, he was a member of four country rock bands: Hearts & Flowers, Dillard & Clark, Linda Ronstadt & the Corvettes and the Flying Burrito Brothers. He is a multi-instrumentalist (guitar, banjo, mandolin, steel guitar, dobro) coming from a bluegrass background. He introduced elements of this music to a mainstream audience during his tenure with Eagles.
Leadon's solo career since leaving Eagles has been sporadic, resulting in two albums under his name (the first being a collaborative project with Michael Georgiades) with a gap of 27 years in between. However, Leadon appeared on many other artists' records as a session musician.
