David Newbould
Born in Toronto, Canada, David left for the United States toward the end of his teenage years. Following in the footsteps of many of his heroes, he focused his attentions on New York City, first landing a spot as a guitar player for indie recording artists The Mercenaries, then eventually finding his own songwriting voice and performing his own material in clubs. He released 2 EP's (Lab Rat, David Newbould), and developed a loyal fan base all through relentless performances and word of mouth – no label publicity, no major press, no glitz. Just songs that touched people’s lives and make an indelible mark. Eventually, he relocated to Austin, TX, where he recorded his third EP (Everyone’s Got Their Own 10), his first full length CD (Big Red Sun), had videos in rotation on Austin Music Network/ME Television, and produced an ambitious live CD/DVD package (The Long Way Home: David Newbould & Friends – Live From Austin). He had 10 film/TV songs placements, and developed his most dedicated and thorough following to date. David carved out a niche as not only a melodic and heartfelt songwriter, but also one who performs with great energy and will command a crowd. At every show he converts new people with his brand of high lonesome rock and roll. It is a brand which celebrates all of rock and roll’s melodic past, and which is familiar to those who love storytelling music. There is a consistent flow of high quality songs coming out of him, as well as performances – constant performances.
In the spring of 2009, David Newbould relocated to Nashville, TN. Having spent several years touring, he had by this point demanded attention as a songwriter worthy of notice. The album, Tennessee, was released in April 2013, and reached #5 on the Euro Americana charts, as well as placing on the FAR (Freeform American Radio) and Roots 66 charts. In late 2013, some songs he wrote with (former Georgia Satellites frontman) Dan Baird appeared on the well received Dan Baird And Homemade Sin CD, Circus Life. In 2015, several more appeared on the same band’s Get Loud! (including the title track), and through 2016-2018, 9 more Newbould penned tracks appeared on Baird’s SoLowand Homemade Sin’s Rollercoaster andScreamer albums. 2016 also saw the release of two new David Newbould EP’s: The Devil Is His Name, and Live At The Building.
