Meet The Band
David S. Martell
David Martell – Vocals & Guitar
Hailing from Seattle, Washington, David Martell grew up with music in his bones. Some of his earliest memories are of lying on the floor with headphones on, listening to David Bowie's Space Oddity and scribbling down silly lyrics, not yet knowing how deeply music would shape his life. He picked up the guitar at 15 and never looked back.
A product of the '90s Seattle scene, David was immersed in the city's creative energy just before grunge exploded—leaving town right before record deals started getting handed out like candy. Though his heart has always belonged to the guitar, it's his vocal talent that tends to steal the spotlight.
His first serious project, Rumble House, was gaining traction when the band broke up, prompting a move to Phoenix, Arizona. There, he formed No Left Turn, which ran strong for several years before the usual band drama took its toll. Burned out, David stepped away from music altogether for a time.
But music has a way of pulling you back. He eventually joined 357, an original band he’s still a part of today, focused on recording and performing the songs they’ve written together. From there, he found his way into the cover band scene with Octane, rocking hard for several years before deciding he wanted more than just straight-ahead rock.
That desire led to Rhymes with Dolores—a genre-bending cover band where David now channels his lifelong love of music, covering everything from Kings of Leon to Tears for Fears. With decades of experience, a voice that cuts through, and a guitar always within reach, David continues to chase the music that’s defined his life..
Bob Rich III
Bob Rich III - Bass Guitar & Vocals
Bob (or Robert, when he’s in trouble) is a guitarist, bassist, and vocalist from Buffalo, NY, now causing a ruckus in Arizona. A lifelong Jimi Hendrix fan, Bob’s been chasing killer tone, pure soul, and just enough chaos to keep everyone on their toes. He’s also been known to wield guitars older than he is… and somehow make them sound even better.
Bob has toured all over North America with Madison Rising, taken the UK by storm with The Pillagers, and shared the stage with legends like Blues Traveler, Quiet Riot, Stryper, Tears for Fears, The Ramones, and Collective Soul. Whether it’s rocking a stadium or a dive bar, Bob brings riffs, grooves, and vocals that hit hard—and occasionally make your heart skip a beat.
In the studio, Bob’s versatility shines. He’s recorded with The Pillagers, Madison Rising, contributed to Music is Art Vol. 1, and laid down full-length albums with This is Now and Da’Loris. Whether he’s locking in a groove or stepping up to sing, he keeps the energy high and the vibes unpredictable.
Endorsed by Revo Guitar Straps, Bob treats his gear with the same love he treats his playing: with passion, precision, and just enough rock-and-roll chaos to keep things interesting.
Chris Reinhard
Chris “Rhino” Reinhard – Guitar & Backup Vocals
Chris Reinhard—affectionately known as “Rhino”—cut his teeth in the gritty bar scene of Erie, Pennsylvania, where lake-effect snow and rust-belt vibes shaped his sound as much as his surroundings. Coming up in the early ’90s, Chris was steeped in classic rock, blues, and the alternative movement that reshaped modern guitar playing. His style is tight, soulful, and deeply rooted in rhythm—equal parts groove and grit.
Whether laying down rich chord beds or weaving in harmonics and subtle accents, Chris brings a raw authenticity to every performance. He’s collaborated with a range of regional acts over the years, earning a reputation as a grounded, intuitive player who always puts the music first.
Influenced by players like Malcolm Young, Mike Campbell, and Stone Gossard, Chris doesn’t chase solos or spotlight—he chases songs. Offstage, he’s also the band's go-to technical guru, keeping the live rig dialed in and making sure the gear runs smooth so the band can stay focused on the music.
When he’s not playing with Rhymes with Dolores, you’ll likely find him out on the water sailing, jamming with friends, or passing on guitar wisdom to the next generation of players.
David Press
David Press – Drums & Percussion
David Press was born during a thunderstorm, probably in Detroit, possibly in the 1930s, depending on which version of the story he's telling. Raised by wolves and mentored by a traveling jazz monk, David discovered rhythm at an early age by banging on pots, pans, car fenders, and unsuspecting furniture. Formal drum lessons were not an option, so he taught himself by playing along with thunder, fireworks, and the occasional police siren.
As a young adult, he wandered the country in a vintage Winnebago powered entirely by funk. He claims to have played drums for at least three Elvis impersonators, a traveling burlesque show, and one failed cult. The timeline remains unclear, and David likes it that way.
After a brief stint working as a UFO mechanic and a professional air drummer, David eventually made his way to Arizona—mostly because it was warm and his parole officer stopped answering his calls. These days, he balances his time between competitive dishwashing, shouting at clouds, and laying down grooves as the unpredictable heartbeat of Rhymes with Dolores.
David Press is not here to make friends. He’s here to play drums, break cymbals, and leave a little mystery wherever he goes.
Henry Smith
Henry Smith - Lead Guitar
Henry has owned over 100 guitars (and yes, he remembers each one by name). By day he’s a researcher — if he ever told you what he researches he’d have to kill you, so instead he offers coffee-fueled theories and epic solos. He teaches guitar on the side, patiently turning hopeful garage strummers into semi-functional rockstars. Nicest guy in the band — just don’t pital on his pedalboard. That’s an inside joke.
