Joshua Redman is the son of to jazz saxophonist Dewey Redman. He is Jewish. He was exposed to many kinds of music at the Center for World Music in Berkeley, where his mother studied South Indian dance. His mother’s name is Renee Shedroff. He was exposed at an early age to a variety of musics and instruments and began playing clarinet at age nine before switching to what became his primary instrument, the tenor saxophone, one year later. Redman has said he is self-taught on the saxophone and has cited his father Dewey Redman, as well as The Beetles, and Earth, Wind and Fire as musical influences just to name a few.

He continued to develop his style throughout the 1990s, beginning with a sideman appearance on Elvin Jones' Youngblood alongside Javon Jackson, and following up with an appearance on his father Dewey's 1992 record Choices.
