Ephriam Wolfolk, a native of Pittsburgh, began his music studies on piano at the age of six. After high school, he pursued a 26-year career in The United States Air Force Band, where he started on tuba, and later switched to the bass. After retiring from the Air Force, Mr. Wolfolk performed as principal bassist with the Annapolis Symphony, and as sectional bassist in the Baltimore, Virginia, Roanoke, and Soulful Symphonies. As an outstanding chamber musician, he has performed with Black Pearl Chamber Orchestra in Philadelphia and the Silver String Quinte. He has performed and recorded with internationally acclaimed stars Ahmad Jamal, Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, David Baker, Diane Schurr, Sonny Stitt, and The Smithsonian Jazz Masterworks Orchestra.
