Tyson Leslie has been playing professionally in clubs and venues all over the US and Globally since 1988. Originally from Kansas City by way of Greeley Colorado, Leslie migrated to Nashville to pursue his dream further to be in a touring act and upon living here three months, he landed the keyboard spot for 90s country superstar Tracy Lawrence. Previous to his tenure with Lawrence, he performed with Corey Taylor of the heavy metal juggernaut Slipknot and Stone Sour in 2008 to 2009. He has since been the keyboardist for late 80s hard rock all female sensation Vixen and is still touring the world with them since 2017. Leslie has performed on the Kid Rock Cruise. The KISS cruise. The Megadeth cruise. Monsters Of Rock, Shiprocked and the Rob Gronkowski cruise among others. He has worked alongside members of Taylor Swift's band, Beyonce's band, Kelly Clarkson's band, Florida Georgia Line, and giant laundry list of other musicians that we've all seen either in concert or on our television sets at home. When Tyson isn’t on the road you can often see him performing between 6-7 nights a week on lower Broadway in Nashville or performing at a Dueling Piano bar somewhere across the country. Leslie has also seen his Rare Hare jams become one of Nashville's biggest and most successful musician gatherings and has attracted musicians from across the world who fly in just to perform in the series that takes place a few times a year.
