With his musical knowledge and musicianship Zan lovingly weaves, throughout his playing, sensitive subtleties that complement the melody. Zan is also a rhythmic powerhouse making him a musician’s musician. I treasure the memories I’ve spent making music with Zan, a great guitarist and fine exponent of stringed instruments.”

“Zan McLeod is a terrific musician and entertainer. He is versatile playing guitar, mandolin and other assorted other instruments. His musical expertise ranges from Irish Traditional Music (a true specialty) to folk and bluegrass and rock and roll. Zan works and performs solo but can magically put together Irish music and other ensembles of talented musicians fast and for multiple kinds of venues. I have heard him at the Irish Embassy, the Kennedy Center, at conferences I produced in Baltimore, DC and Boston and at events both in intimate pubs and in my own home. All were wonderful musical experiences.”
