STRO ELLIOT OF THE ROOTS / STRO X SCM BEGINNINGS / SOUL 2 STRO! / HOW MANY TEXTS DID QUESTLOVE SEND ? / LIFE ON TV WITH JIMMY FALLON / PLAYLIST RETREAT WITH DJ JAZZY JEFF

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.   

Now, as a member of The Roots, Stro continues his music journey with one of the most Iconic bands ever.
