Dubourg was born in London, the illegitimate son of a court dancing master.〔David J.

At age 11, he furthered his studies under the celebrated Italian violinist, composer and music theorist Francesco Geminiani.
Dubourg served as concert-master from 1728 to 1752 in Dublin. His official title was "Chief Composer and Master of the Music attending His Majesty's State in Ireland" at Dublin Castle.

In 1752, Dubourg became Master of the Royal Chapel in London, a post he occupied until his death in 1767.
Of a concert in 1742 conducted by Handel, the following anecdote was told: Dubourg played a cadenza in which he wandered far from the theme creating complex modulations of it. When he finally returned to the original theme, Handel said: "Welcome home, Mr. Dubourg".
