Bernie Leadon (Founding Member of The Eagles)
Thursday, 27 November, 2025
Founding Eagles member Bernie Leadon joins me to share the real story behind one of the most important chapters in American music. Bernie talks about his early years with Gram Parsons and the Flying Burrito Brothers, his memories from Altamont Speedway, and the musical and personal moments that shaped the rise of The Eagles. We dive deep into writing classics like “Witchy Woman,” the band’s early chemistry, why he left, and what it was like returning decades later for the History of the Eagles tour. Bernie also opens up about Gram’s death, the California country-rock scene, and the new music he’s creating today. If you love the Eagles, Gram Parsons, real music history, or the roots of country rock, this episode is packed with stories you won’t hear anywhere else.bernie leadon, eagles founding member, the eagles, gram parsons, flying burrito brothers, altamont speedway, witchy woman, eagles interview, gram parsons stories, bernie leadon interview, drifting cowboy podcast, dillon weldon, country rock history, classic rock stories, music history podcast, history of the eagles, california country rock, american music history, gram parsons death, eagles founding story, bernie leadon new music, eagles documentary, country music podcast, rock and roll history
