The nephew of jazz drummer and composer Walter Bolden, Dezron Douglas was surrounded by music during most of his childhood. He began playing the bass at the early age of nine years old.
Graduating from the Jackie McLean Institute, where he studied with Nat Reeves, Steve Davis and McLean, he has gone on to perform and record with such jazz musicians as Michael Carvin, Pharoah Sanders, Nicholas Payton, Joe Farnsworth, Eric Alexander and more.
Here, Dezron is joined by Cyrus Chestnut on piano and Lewis Nash on drums for an album of tunes including "Minority", "Stay On it" and "Walkin' My Baby Back Home'.
