Singer Dina Preston moved from her Phoenix, AZ hometown to San Francisco in December 1980. She relocated three years later to San Diego where she founded the Dina Preston Band, playing originals and covers ranging from rock to blues, R&B, country, and jazz. Guitarist Don Ortiz joined in 1989, and the two later married.
In 2001, Preston took a teaching position at Paradise Valley Community College, though she kept the band active.
