Born March 4th 1957 in Tuskegee, Alabama Douglas Jerome Dumas (dRony) is the second child born to Douglas and Jessie Dumas.

That passion led him to study Artist like The Commodores, David Ruffin, Sam Cooke, Bobby Womack, Rod Stewart, Kenny Rogers, Lionel Richie, and many others.
After twenty-two years as a public servant, dRony retired and began to pursue a music career.

After the death of Mr. Lovejoy, dRony auditioned for Super Star Artist, Marvin Sease and was chosen for the position of Guitarist and Band Leader. He said working for Mr. Sease was a very educational experience.
