Real name: David Scott Roberts

Effective period / Period of releases: 1982 - 2008

Singer and songwriter born in Boston, Masssachusetts on September 13, 1958, raised in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Session singer/songwriter David Roberts wasn’t always behind the scenes making the vocals on other people’s records sound good. Roberts had a solo career of his own with 1982’s ‘All Dressed Up’ on WEA Records. The album was prestigious in that it was produced by jazz pianist Greg Mathieson (Melissa Manchester, Barbra Streisand, Olivia Newton-John) and featured the stellar musical contributions of members of Toto – Jeff and Mike Porcaro, Steve Lukather. The album produced a lukewarm hit in ‘Boys of Autumn’. In recent years his session work and co-writing has kept his career hopping. Roberts co-wrote “Powerline” for Lee Aaron, and sang back-ups for Rational Youth (‘Heredity’) and Strange Advance (‘2W0’).
