Who is Rhymes with Dolores
If you've ever wondered what happens when a '90s sitcom joke grows legs, picks up instruments, and starts a band—look no further than Rhymes with Dolores. This five-piece cover band is here to rock your world, one punchline and power chord at a time.
Leading the charge is David S. Martell—vocals, rhythm guitar, and the guy who somehow manages to keep the chaos on stage somewhat organized. Picture a frontman raised on equal parts Seinfeld reruns and classic rock radio, with a voice big enough to fill a stadium… or at least a dive bar with decent acoustics.
Standing to his right is Wayne Rodgers, a guitar-slinging enigma with the hands of a shredder and the calm, vacant stare of a man who might be calculating tone settings or thinking about tacos. No one really knows what’s going on behind his eyes—and frankly, we’re afraid to ask.
Rounding out the triple-guitar threat is Chris “Rhino” Reinhard, who brings the rust-belt grit of Erie, PA and the soul of a bluesman trapped in an alt-rocker’s body. When he’s not keeping the band’s tone tight and tastefully overdriven, he’s the band’s technical guru—wielding cables, pedals, and obscure adapters like some kind of audio wizard with a mild caffeine addiction.
On bass, Bill Cameron holds it down with green strings, big groove, and a vibe that says “chill dad who used to tour with a punk band.” His playing locks in tight with the drums, forming the kind of rhythm section you can set your watch to—assuming your watch likes to party.
And then there’s David Press on drums: the human metronome, percussion overlord, and the only band member likely to have a mugshot that doubles as an album cover. Raised in mystery and fueled by sarcasm, Dave keeps time like a Swiss watch if that watch were also yelling at you to count in correctly.
Their setlist reads like the ultimate throwback mixtape: Green Day, Tom Petty, Kings of Leon, Chris Stapleton, Pearl Jam, The Cure, The Cult, Tears for Fears, Duran Duran, INXS, Aerosmith, Cheap Trick, Collective Soul, and more. If you’ve sung it in the shower or screamed it at karaoke, chances are they’ve nailed it live—with a few extra decibels and a lot more swagger.
Why Rhymes with Dolores? Because every great band name should have a little mystery, a touch of mischief, and at least one Seinfeld reference you didn’t see coming. Also, they’re not just sponge-worthy—they’re still masters of their domain.
So if you're ready for a night of big hooks, loud laughs, and serious musicianship with absolutely zero pretense, come catch Rhymes with Dolores in the wild.
Come for the music. Dance. Yada yada yada. Leave with a story.
