Nice interview. I appreciate fundamental questions about the right hand, tremolo, and chop chords. Inquiring minds!

Thanks,

Great. Great player, great conversation, great interview, great ideas. All great.

Late addition. Typically don't do this but a full MP3 track from the new Hawktail album arrived after the publish date so I've inserted it into the article. This band is tasty plus! Our opinion.

Good article on this fellow, touches on all of the cool areas. He has a very stylistic approach to the mandolin.

Thank you for this lovely feature! Dominick has been a personal favorite over the last few years as he is truly brilliant and endlessly inspiring.

Good selection of notes, great tone & feel in the groove. And great interview.

Good interview! I wish he talked about his Gil a little bit though.

I came to the cafe today to see about posting a message about Dominick Leslie guest hosting my radio show, and saw this article/interview. I had asked him a few weeks ago if he was interested in being a guest DJ on my show on WTJU Charlottesville, and he said 'for sure' and we finally nailed down the date today - it will air live friday sept 4th, 4-6pm US EST. WTJU broadcasts on the web and also archives shows for two weeks after original airing on our website, so it will be available anywhere there's decent internet service. Dominick will be zooming in from Nashville and I'll be playing his playlist from our studios in Charlottesville. He's picking all the music..his favorites, influences, anything he wants to showcase and so on.

Here are the details:
Name of show: Sunset Road
Air time: Friday Sept 4th 4-6pm US EST
Website: https://www.wtju.net
Archived version of the show after it airs: https://www.wtju.net/recent-shows/#2020-09-04 ...Look for 'Sunset Road'
Archived version of show will be there until 9/18/20 at 4pm US EST
Folks can also ask their smart devices to just 'play WTJU, 91.1FM'

During the pandemic, I have occasionally reached out to other artists to guest host the show while they are unable to gig..Fiddler Rayna Gellert was my 'guinea pig' on the first one of these, and bassist Missy Raines will be on on Sept 11th.

All the best
