Born in the pines of Virginia, MacLeod's unique, unorthodox, and
powerfully rhythmic style of acoustic guitar playing is tempered by his
early years as a blues bass player, and honed by his subsequent journeys
into jazz and electric blues.

Whether picking or playing bottleneck on his National guitar, MacLeod's
relentless right hand, with its churning bass and intricate finger
picking, prompted James Jensen of Acoustic Guitar Magazine to write,
"Real excitement is created by MacLeod's highly rhythmic acoustic
guitar." This excitement has moved people who dance at his solo
performances to stop in their tracks during one of his moving slow blues.
