About Dicky Wells

Dicky Wells, born William Wells on June 10, 1907, in Centerville, Tennessee, was a pioneering American jazz trombonist whose career spanned over five decades. Renowned for his gritty blues-infused style and fluid solos, Wells was one of swing music's greatest trombone players. He began his musical journey in the early 1930s, playing with legendary bands like Fletcher Henderson's orchestra. Throughout his career, Wells collaborated with numerous jazz greats, including a notable partnership with trumpeter Rex Stewart, which resulted in the acclaimed album "The Talkative Horns of Rex Stewart and Dicky Wells." Wells' discography includes other notable works such as "Chatter Jazz" and "Bones for the King." His innovative approach to the trombone and his soulful playing left an indelible mark on the jazz world. Dicky Wells passed away on November 12, 1985, in New York City, but his music continues to inspire and captivate audiences worldwide.
