Dwayne Dolphin is a jazz and funk bassist.
Dolphin plays acoustic bass and bass guitar (including piccolo bass). [1] He played locally in Pittsburgh from the age of 15. [1] After high school he joined Wynton Marsalis's band. [1] The AllMusic reviewer of his 1993 album Portrait of Adrian observed that "Dolphin's tone is round and full, and he's got an agile technique. Certainly the late Paul Chambers must have been an influence; like Chambers, Dolphin tends to place his unfussy improvisations in the instrument's lower register. Consequently, his lines are solidly melodic and generally to the point." [2] Dolphin played piccolo bass on his 2006 album Ming. [3] [4]

Paul Laurence Dunbar Chambers Jr. was a jazz double bassist. A fixture of rhythm sections during the 1950s and 1960s, his importance in the development of jazz bass can be measured not only by the extent of his work in this short period, but also by his impeccable timekeeping and virtuosic improvisations. He was also known for his bowed solos. Chambers recorded about a dozen albums as a leader or co-leader, and as a sideman, especially as the anchor of trumpeter Miles Davis's "first great quintet" (1955–63) and with pianist Wynton Kelly (1963–68).
