The Roots' Questlove and Stro Elliot play a drum and percussion passage live in concert at The Masonic Auditorium in San Francisco, California on February 23, 2023. Elliot uses an Ableton Push controller pad to chop up breaks and loops and to sample his percussion parts, including some vintage James Brown ("Funky Drummer" from 1970) on his percussion solo. In 2022, Elliot released an entire album of these James Brown performances, entitled Black & Loud: James Brown Reimagined By Stro Elliot.
The Roots are a hip-hop / soul band from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania consisting of Tariq Trotter a/k/a Black Thought (vocals), ?uestlove (drums), Kirk Douglas (guitar), Dave Guy (trumpet), Ian Hendrickson-Smith (saxophone / flute), Damon Bryson a/k/a Tuba Gooding, Jr. (sousaphone), Stro Elliot (percussion), Ray Angry (keyboards and keytar), and Kamal Gray (keyboards).
======================
The Roots official bio:
The Roots have consistently elevated music and culture as one of the most influential and impactful hip-hop collectives of all time. Founded by Tariq “Black Thought” Trotter and Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson, the three-time Grammy Award-winning multi platinum group went from rapping on Philadelphia corners all the way to gigs at The White House, a longtime stint as the “house band” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and billing atop their own annual festival The Roots Picnic. Among numerous classics, they changed hip-hop forever with 1999’s platinum Things Fall Apart-which Rolling Stone named one of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time and Pitchfork graded 9.4-out-of-10. Their Grammy Awards include Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group for “You Got Me,” Best Traditional R&B Vocal Performance for “Hang On in There,” and Best R&B Album for Wake Up. As a live phenomenon, The Roots made history as the “first hip-hop group to perform at Lincoln Center,” and Rolling Stone lauded them as one of the “Twenty Greatest Live Acts in the World.” Black Thought and Questlove served as executive producers of the acclaimed AMC documentary series, Hip-Hop: The Songs That Shook America, and also launched their own film and television production company Two One Five Entertainment and locked down a first-look deal with Universal Television Alternative Studio and Universal Television. With their twelfth full-length album on the horizon, The Roots level up again and bring the whole culture with them.

Stro Elliot official bio:
As a child of military parents, Stro Elliot traveled the world marinating in a record collection that spanned from jazz greats like Miles Davis and Herbie Hancock, to funk/soul luminaries like Stevie Wonder, Funkadelic, and Prince.
Studying trumpet, piano, drums and guitar in his teens, Stro became a skilled multi-instrumentalist, even as he began to explore the world of hip hop, drawn to the likes of A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, The Pharcyde, and Ice Cube.
In recent years, Stro has become a go-to musical collaborator both in the studio and on stage for Grammy-winning artists including The Roots, DJ Jazzy Jeff and more, and is one of the founding members of The Playlist Retreat, a next-generation musical collective of award-winning producers, DJs and artists. His production is currently featured on the Billboard #1 album, The Hamilton Mixtape.
Stro currently resides in Los Angeles, CA, and continues to expand his musical palette with every new project, edit, or remix. His debut, self-titled album was released on Street Corner Music.
