Osian Roberts was born and raised in Cardiff and took up the alto saxophone aged nine. He soon switched to tenor, and after showing early promise on the Welsh jazz scene, he won a scholarship to study jazz saxophone at The Royal Academy of Music in London, where he stayed after graduating. Whilst in London, he played with many of the UK's leading jazz figures, including Dave Cliff, Mike Carr, Jim Mullen, Peter Ind, Iain Ballamy, Simon Woolf and Mark Nightingale.
