Joe Newberry Live In Concert – December 4

$25
Known around the world for his clawhammer banjo playing Joe Newberry is also a powerful guitarist singer and songwriter. The Gibson Brothers’ version of his song “Singing As We Rise” featuring guest vocalist Ricky Skaggs won an IBMA “Gospel Recorded Performance” Award. With Eric Gibson he shared the IBMA “Song of the Year” Award for “They Called It Music.”
 
A longtime and frequent guest on A Prairie Home Companion he was a featured singer on the Transatlantic Sessions 2016 tour of the U.K. with fiddler Aly Bain and Dobro master Jerry Douglas and at the Transatlantic Session’s debut at Merlefest in 2017. In addition to performing solo he plays in a duo with mandolin icon Mike Compton and also performs with the dynamic fiddler and step-dancer April Verch.
 
Growing up in a family full of singers and dancers he took up the guitar and banjo as a teenager and learned fiddle tunes from great Missouri fiddlers.  Newberry moved to North Carolina as a young man and quickly became an anchor of the incredible music scene in the state.
“His lyrics read like a cross between Longfellow and Johnny Cash. The muse is sometimes gentle and other times rough. But she never strays too far from Joe Newberry’s side.” — Independent Weekly
“Most contemporary old-time artists get their inspiration from recordings either commercial or field made. Most of the time the artists spend their energy trying to copy the sound of their source.  Joe Newberry goes one step further… He takes the music and makes it his own and always respectfully.” — SingOut!
Transatlantic Sessions review… “Appalachian veteran Joe Newberry allied his trenchant raw-boned holler with lickety-split banjo picking.” — The Scotsman Newspaper
