Made up of talented musicians from the Pacific NW, Black Dolly is full of soulful jams and smooth grooves. Started by Chris Newbury and his wife Wendy, the band was really formed by a desire for Chris to give Wendy a recording session for their anniversary. Chris utilized the help of his long time friends and musical collaborators Eddie Ramirez, Frazer Wambeke, Luke Basile, and Ryan Matzinger, to record the Dianne Reeves cover of Fleetwood Mac's hit "Dreams". The project was enough of a success that Chris decided to formally pursue an official group.
