The David Bamber Quintet

Grounded in the traditions of jazz and improvisation, David Bamber is a genre blending bassist with a focus on creating new and progressive music. Growing up with a Puerto Rican mother and African-American father gave him the opportunity to become familiar with a multitude of music including, jazz, salsa, rnb, and hip-hop. David is a graduate of Howard University, where he had the opportunity to perform with iconic musicians such as Hubert Laws, Hugh Masekela, Javon Jackson, Cyrus Chestnut, and Patti Austin. In his personal career, David has been fortunate enough to share the stage with Warren Wolf, Tim Warfield, Chucho Valdes, and Khary Abdul-Shaheed. David has performed at a multitude of venues including The Kennedy Center, McCarter Theatre, Apollo, Twins Jazz, Mr.Henry’s, Chris’s Jazz Café, and Blues Alley. During the summer of 2019, he opened for internationally acclaimed trumpet player, Sean Jones at the historic Chicken Bone Beach Jazz Festival in Atlantic City. In October of 2019, David had the pleasure of performing at “The International Festival de Jazz” in Juarez, Mexico with the Philasound Quartet. David Bamber also holds a M.M. from Temple University. He has been a student of Steve Novosel, Mike Boone, David Wong, Charlie Young, Tim Warfield, Ben Schachter, and Warren Wolf. David recently released his first EP entitled “Beauty In The Journey”, a compilation of original music, which blends his love of contemporary/electronic music with his foundation in jazz.
