Leland Thomas Faegre
For the most part a bookworm prior to the British Invasion of 1964, by the end of that year Leland Thomas Faegre was smitten by the Beatles and had acquired and mastered the drum kit made possible by the determination of his mother, Dorothy. He assembled some schoolmates who could play and his first band was incarnated.
But by the Summer of '68, as the Beatles 'Hey Jude' was bulleting up the charts, Leland Thomas Faegre's neighbor's piano and an acoustic guitar he purchased with strings nearly one-half inch off the fret board would thoroughly occupy his waking hours. Remembering the strings that cut through his fingertips, Leland nonetheless persevered from the love of the sound of the chords--especially G major, and began to develop his skills by emulating the best of that era, such as CSNY, Byrds and Buffalo Springfield.
Following his acquisition of guitar and piano skills, his reputation for playing became more widely respected as he developed and assembled various musicians with whom he could play for both fun and profit. Performing for dances and weddings was fun, but his most passionate interest became his compositional quest that developed in earnest after high school. But his real interests grew during college, and the rest is just Leland's sweet history.
