About Norside:
Originating out of Pittsburgh PA, Norside has rapidly established themselves as one of the region’s most exciting new acts. Since forming in mid 2022, they’ve been winning over crowds with their electrifying blend of soul-jazz grooves and gritty Rust Belt swagger - a sound they’ve coined Rust Belt Funk. In just a short time, Norside has shared the stage with renowned artists such as Soulive, The New Mastersounds, The Bar-Kays, Soul Rebels Brass Band, Chris Cain, Steeltown Horns, and many others, solidifying their reputation as a must-see live band on the rise.
About Dwayne Dolphin:
A Pittsburgh icon: Jazz and funk bassist Dwayne Dolphin was recruited out of high school by Wynton Marsalis to tour with his quintet. Dolphin later went on to play and tour with members of James Brown's JBs band such as Fred Wesley, Maceo Parker, and Pee Wee Ellis. A member of the Pittsburgh Jazz Hall of Fame, Dolphin has also played and recorded with luminaries including Hank Jones, Nancy Wilson, Pharoah Sanders, Geri Allen, Marcus Belgrave, Wallace Roney, and John Hicks.
