Thanks for sharing the video. This band has it going on. I enjoy hearing steel guitar in different musical contexts. If you don't have time to listen to the full song at least check out the solo at 2:40. |

Roosevelt has th chops of Robert Randolph and is pushing the limits musically. I was playing some gigs with one of the guitar players last year and he was telling me about the project. I had no idea how bad ass it was going to be. _________________ Bob |

Bob, thanks for sharing, this is out of sight. As is the record Rosie did with Andy Hall (Infamous Stringdusters) at John's studio recently... had tonight off and it was a real pleasure to check out that record and this new group! |

In 2008, I was playing a the Chicago Blues Festival with Catherine Russell (Harlem royalty for sure) I finished the set and this very humble African-American guy comes up to me backstage and says "You're playing a Franklin, how do you like it?" I said I loved it and wondered why he was interested. He said he plays a Carter and he's interested in all brands of pedal steels because he was thinking of getting a new steel. I was thinking that I was the only PSG player at the festival. Then this humble guy turns out to be Roosevelt Collier and plays the next set with The Lee Boys. I was totally knocked out by the band and especially by Roosevelt. I'll never forget that moment and I was totally humbled by his talent. Lesson learned. Never judge a book by its cover.
This new band sounds fantastic and I simply have to catch them live.
