Questlove: Jazz Musician in New York

About Questlove

Questlove is a New York–based drummer, producer, DJ, and cultural commentator, widely known as the co-frontman of The Roots and as the house-band leader on late-night television. His work also extends to Broadway cast recording production, music journalism, and teaching at NYU’s Clive Davis Institute, alongside his long-running “Questlove Supreme” podcast. In DJ sets like his Prince-focused night at Brooklyn Bowl, he approaches sequencing like bandleading. His selections favor narrative and groove over spectacle.
