"Phil's
session drumming and creative senses are spectacular! I count on his ability
to sus out all of the angles and turns in my music and know implicitly that he will show up to any gig, recording session or rehearsal extremely prepared and
ready to hit it! His sound is very big, and his groove is bigger, and he truly leads
from the drum chair - no questions required... Phil is a world class
drummer."
David Pierce, MD/Arranger/Composer 2010 Olympic Winter Games, Broadway.
| "Phil is a fine musician and a true gentleman. We've had the pleasure of working with Phil on a number of drum sessions at Electronic Arts. He performed on 3 sequels of 'NBA LIVE' the video game. Those tunes and stingers would not have grooved the way they did without his great prowess on the kit. Some songs we thought might challenge him but he has the ability to pull off great complexities with precision and with seemingly great ease. His grooves are simply infectious. We'll be back again for more!" Traz Damji a.k.a The Humble Brothers Remix team for Linkin Park, Deftones, Filter, Static X.

"Phil performed on my latest album and did a fabulous job! The drums on the title track were recorded
and delivered to me from his studio. It's truly one of the most
powerful drum performances I have ever heard!"
"Some of
some of the finest playing I've been lucky enough to record was from
Phil Robertson, e-session-drummer.com. He is extremely talented and is that rare blend
of player who possesses technical ability yet also has a very sympathetic ear,
very in atune to the song and the intuitive direction of the artist . Never a note out of place......a
true pleasure and a rare find.......worth twice the doe ........in US Dollars."
Vince Jones: Producer. Editor - Pink, Hoobastank, keyboardist Sarah McLachlan, programmer Maroon 5
"
Phil is a consummate professional and brings exceeding artistry to his musical contribution. In this day and age, to me, the ideal musician is one who is a tremendous player, has a unique artistry in his work, and is current and up with the technology. Phil possesses all these things . I have LOVED working with him."

he's done for me over the net and would highly recommend him to anyone wanting
online drum sessions that are rock solid, not overplayed and truly an inspiration to play to
and sing to."

is simply put, a true session ace in every way and is my first call drummer, whether
on the stage or in the recording studio.As producer for children's

he's 2nd to none."

"Having engineered and mixed many a project that Phil has been involved with, I think one word to sum his playing up would be "solid", whatever the flavor. He has the uncanny ability to make it sound like he's played the song for years...after only a couple of takes. Plus he's a great guy too . I highly recommend him for any recording project. Guarantee you won't be disappointed."
Greg Reely: Engineer/mix engineer - Fear Factory , Delerium, Sarah McLachlan.

are top shelf. He's a dedicated and true musician."

"As a songwriter,
producer or teacher Phil is still my #1 choice. I have very specifc criteria for this:
He's the fastest, he's the most musical ahd he takes direction to heart professionally.
He saves a producer or songwriter money in the studio with his great reading
and session drumming abilites and to top it off the
guy is extremely creative! I have no problem recommending Phil as a top session drummer
in the field."

drumming with great musicality, rock solid metre, killer groove and a style
all his own. There are thousands of drummers out there, and Phil is one of
the very few that gets a call from me."
