Bio

Shayna Dulberger is a bassist currently living and working in New York City. She has recorded with The E.R.A., Chris Welcome "Quartet", the Young Equestrians, the Push Pull Quartet, the Ras Moshe "Quartet" and as William Parker's bass player on "Double Sunrise Over Neptune" (Aum Fidelity) . She has performed in festivals and series such as XFest (Lowell, MA), Rhythm in the Kitchen, KMB Jazz Festival, CMJ, "Brooklyn Next" BAM Festival, the Vision Festival, ABC No Rio's C.O.M.A., and Neues Kabarett's events at the Brecht Forum.  Since 2007 she has regularly worked with Bill Cole performing in New York City and at Syracuse University.

Her first album as a band leader, composer and producer is named "TheKillMeTrio" and was described "...as one of the stronger avant-jazz groups we’ve heard in some time." (Time Out New York) In 2007, in a review of TheKillMeTrio album "Jazz and Tzaz" wrote "The 23 year old New Yorker does not comply with the trendy model of women in Jazz". Bruce Lee Gallanter (DMG) wrote in a review for Ras Moshe's album "Transcendence" and said "Acoustic bassist, Shayna Dulberger, is another important new musician to watch, she takes a number amazing solos on this disc that show her to be a new force to be reckoned with."  Shayna has been interviewed on Taran's Free Jazz Hour (Angers, France) and was invited by All About Jazz to participate in their "Listen Up!" Section.

Dulberger was born in 1983, raised in Mahopac, NY and has been playing bass since she was 13yrs old.  She attended Manhattan School of Music's preparatory division during high school and graduated with a BM in Jazz at the Mason Gross School of the Arts, Rutgers University.

Shayna is very interested in playing a wide variety of original music and developing bands that have unique sounds and concepts different from each other.  "TheKillMeTrio" is very Free Jazz and Nu-Jazz inspired while "The Chris Welcome Quartet" is Minimal and Atonal.  "Stoney Mountain" is reminiscent of Doom Metal and Steve Reich while "The Young Equestrians" explores the Drone but in an Indie Rock style.  She is also very motivated to collaborate with artists of different media including painters, visual artists, sculptors, video artists, poets, and dancers. Her goal is to explore the new spaces where the arts collaborate to create new experiences for artists and audiences.
