Chart-topping singer-songwriter Newton Faulkner is set to visit Princess Pavilion Falmouth and O2 Academy Bristol this spring.
Newton Faulkner makes soulful and heartfelt acoustic blues with a pop edge and a distinctively laid-back style.
Hailed by many as the ‘next Jack Johnson‘, his music covers many genres, including folk, blues, soul and country.
The gold-selling musician found fame with the release of his 2007 debut album Hand Built By Robots, which went to number one in the UK album chart.
The record included hits such as Dream Catch Me, I Need Something and a cover of Massive Attack‘s hugely popular Teardrop.
He followed this up with the 2009 BRIT-nominated Rebuilt By Humans. The title came about after Faulkner completely dislocated his right hand while on a skiing holiday, nearly bringing an end to his guitar playing career.
Newton is currently writing and recording his third studio album at his home studio. The record is expected to be released later this year, possibly to coincide with the new spring tour.
Newton Faulkner hits Princess Pavilion Falmouth on April 23, 2012, and O2 Academy Bristol on May 5, 2012. Tickets go on sale at 9am on February 17, 2012.
