Leslie, Tice, and Witcher
The trio of Mike Witcher, Dominick Leslie, and Jordan Tice is a union of the 3 of the most exciting instrumentalists in acoustic music. Together, they have created a repertoire consisting of their own original tunes, the bluegrass and old-time classics they love, as well as songs from a wide range of sources both traditional and modern.

He has played the Grand Ole Opry and Prairie Home Companion many times and you can hear him on hundreds of records, sound tracks, commercials and tv shows.
Mandolinist Dominick Leslie has spent every one of those years immersed in bluegrass and acoustic music, and his innovative style and musical curiosity are informed by these deep roots.
