Lil' John Roberts

Lil John Roberts is a drummer with far too many significant connections to list in full. He's one of the most significant session and touring musicians of his time, as well as a member of his own group, the Chronicle. While in his teens, Roberts played beside Joey DeFrancesco and Christian McBride as part of Wynton Marsalis' Duke Ellington Orchestra. During the early '90s, he was awarded a full scholarship to study at Berklee College of Music, where he remained for two years prior to joining fellow Philadelphians DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince on the road. He then continued to perform with dozens of musicians and took part in sessions for albums by the likes of Everette Harp, George Duke, En Vogue, George Benson, Sinéad O'Connor, Jill Scott, Ledisi, the Foreign Exchange, and Faith Evans. In 2014, Roberts released The Heartbeat, on which he was joined by a large supporting cast, including Robert Glasper, Nicholas Payton, Anthony David, Eric Roberson, Musiq Soulchild, and Stokley Williams.
