Soft-spoken by nature, Roosevelt Collier does his hollering on the steel guitar. Raised in the "sacred steel" tradition of his South Florida gospel church, Roosevelt built his reputation alongside his uncles and cousins in The Lee Boys, known for their spirited, soul-shaking live performances. Seated front and center, "The Dr." leaves an indelible mark on listeners, flooring audiences with his lightning-fast slide work. He is a regular special guest at festivals and on tour with other artists, invited to perform across genres with bands from Widespread Panic to Karl Denson's Tiny Universe to Yonder Mountain String Band. But no matter what the context, when Roosevelt Collier takes the stage, the ear-to-ear grins cant help but be contagious.
Past Guest Appearances:
Allman Brothers, ALO, Anders Osborne, Aquarium Rescue Unit, Break Science, Del McCoury Band, Dumpstaphunk, Elvin Bishop, Funky Meters, Galactic, Gov't Mule, Greensky Bluegrass, John Butler Trio, John Scofield, Karl Denson's Tiny Universe, Lettuce, Living Color, Los Lobos, Marco Benevento, Medeski Martin & Wood, the Meter Men, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Mike Dillon Band, New Mastersounds, Slide Brothers, Soulive, St. Paul & the Broken Bones, Tab Benoit, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Trombone Shorty, Victor Wooten, Widespread Panic, Wood Brothers, Yonder Mountain String Band and Zach Deputy.
