Randolph has toured extensively in support of the critically acclaimed 2010 studio album We Walk This Road.

A pedal steel guitarist who came out of the sacred steel tradition, Randolph was named one of the 100 Greatest Guitar Players of All Time by Rolling Stone. Spin called his playing "joyously flashy yet never glib or predictable." Randolph received a GRAMMY® nomination for "Best R&B Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals" for his collaboration with The Clark Sisters on the track "Higher Ground" from the all-star collaboration album Oh Happy Day.
Renowned for their live performances, Robert Randolph & the Family Band haveperformed alongside Dave Matthews Band, Eric Clapton, The Roots, Trombone Shorty and Allen Toussaint.
