Gene Dunlap was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and he began playing drums as a high school student.[1][3] He joined the guitarist Earl Klugh as a drummer. In later years, he also performed with Roy Ayers, who played the vibraphone, and guitarist Grant Green.[3]
Afterward, he rejoined Earl Klugh during the mid-1970s,[1] to record a series of albums during a period of 20 years, including some albums for Capitol Records.[4] After 1994, Dunlap quit performing and taught inner city youth in Detroit, but returned as a bandleader/drummer in April 2000.[3]
