Joseph Wooten has been playing keyboards with the “Steve Miller Band” for the past 33 years. He has that signature keyboard sound in their hit song “Fly Like An Eagle”. Joseph sang backup vocals on Whitney Houston's first album. He is also the co-founder of a non-profit organization called "I Matter! You Matter!”. Their mission is to heal division, honor diversity, and promote the importance of ALL people...with the power of music and dialogue.
Roy “Futureman" Wooten is one of the most innovative drummers in the world. His is the creator of the unique instrument the SynthAxeDrumitar.
