Chuck Leavell: Rock 'n' Roller, Champion Tree Farmer

Pianist Chuck Leavell made a name for himself as a rock 'n' roll musician and pianist-for-hire for top bands like the Rolling Stones and Blues Traveler. When he's not on tour, Leavell tends to his other passion -- he's an award-winning tree farmer.
