Sam Newton
Band from Ultimo, Australia
Sam Newton is “an adventurous musical mind set on creating both free-wheelin’ and carefully constructed and detailed songs.” - Chris Familton, Post To Wire (Nov 24, 2014) He brings to the Australian singer-songwriter scene a sound that sits amongst a blend of folk, acoustic blues and foot stomping alternative-country.
His lyricism and musical delivery is both individual and inviting with a sound that appeals to a broad spectrum of tastes. “A wonderful intensity in his arrangements and delivery… It is that ability to construct complex underlying patterns in his songs which is his real strength.” - Paul Smith, The Sydney Morning Herald (Nov 21, 2014)
Following Sam Newton’s self-titled EP in 2011, his first full length album ‘Set in Stone’ is a crowd funded project two years in the making and released on October 18, 2014.
