DNA is an album by the American jazz pianist Matthew Shipp with bassist William Parker, which was recorded in 1999 and released on Thirsty Ear. It was their second duo recording; the first was Zo. The album includes two traditional pieces, "When Johnny Comes Marching Home" and "Amazing Grace".
In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow states: "Shipp's dense chords and atonal playing will remind some listeners of Cecil Taylor although there is a lyricism in his music (and an occasional use of space) that is very much his own."
