8/11/2008 Fans and friends of David Newbould! I am taping a live CD/DVD in Austin, TX next month, and I write to humbly notify you that I could use your help! The project is being done through central Texas’ local music network, ME Television. ME TV has been doing a series of these packages since last year, and until my project, they have been funded by a group of local investors. Sadly, a couple of weeks ago these independent investors decided not to fund anymore such projects, leaving mine to dissipate in the far reaches of the “what might have been” annals of music history. Heroically, however, a man of majestic morale named Alan Luecke (one of the heads at ME TV), would not allow the project to fall to the lions, and this great man has put up a budget out of his own pocket to allow the show to go on and be housed, lit, promoted, recorded – preserved for history! This budget will allow for us to stage the show, record it both in audio and HD digital video, and do most of the video post production. Unfortunately, however, much more money is needed in order for this project to see the light of day. Though I am working tirelessly to raise money through touring, CD sales, and have been approaching local music businesses about investing, I am writing to let you know that I have set up a special PayPal donation account, at which you are welcome to securely donate any sum you feel. To donate, simply visit www.davidnewbould.com and click on the “DONATE” button. You can donate directly via your PayPal account. If you don’t have a PayPal account, you can use any credit card, or debit card with a credit card logo on it. Every little bit counts, so please – if you’ve always wanted to throw your two cents in on my career, now’s your chance! *Please note: -Those who can donate $30 or more will receive a FREE CD/DVD PACKAGE in the mail once products are ready. -Those who can donate $100 or more will receive a FREE DV/DVD PACKAGE, and will be thanked personally in the liner notes. This project has been building up for the past 6 months to be the apex of my career to date. It will be a double CD/single DVD package of old and new material, as well as interviews, raw footage, and a rather highly acclaimed video for “See You On The Other Side”. Among the guests who will be appearing are Redd Volkaert, Cindy Cashdollar, Papa Mali, Wendy Colonna, Will Taylor, and a ton of others. The new songs will be specially mixed for TV, (in addition to the live mixes for the CD/DVD), for my publishing company to shop for TV/commercial/film placements. A portion of the event’s proceeds and donations will go to The Humane Society of Williamson County, down here in Central Texas. It is up to me, and all of us involved down here, to creatively come up with ways to fund the remainder of this project – audio mixing, mastering, packaging, and equally as important – paying all the musicians! A likely total of $8000-$10,000 beyond what we have is what we need, so again - every little bit helps! Below is the Billboard Magazine press release for the event, and here is a link to a recent review of my Big Red Sun CD in Performing Songwriter Magazine! Whether you can donate much or not, thank you so much – if nothing else, for reading this far! I will update you all as to how the project is coming along. Sincerely, David Newbould. David Newbould Assembles All-Star Line-up For Live Film Event David Newbould, whose songs have appeared on TV shows like "Dawson's Creek" and "Criminal Minds," has an all-star team of musicians set to perform for a live CD/DVD recording August 20th in Austin, Tx. A portion of the proceeds will go to the Humane Society of Williamson County. Austin, TX (Billboard Publicity Wire) July 29, 2008 -- Critically acclaimed singer/songwriter David Newbould has assembled an all-star lineup of accomplished musicians who have shared the stage with stars such as Merle Haggard, Bob Dylan, and Van Morrison for a live performance to be video-taped in Austin, TX on August 20, 2008 at 7 p.m. at METV Headquarters. A portion of the proceeds from the event will go to the Humane Society of Williamson County. Newbould, who has had many of his songs appear on major network TV shows such as "Criminal Minds" (CBS), "Dawson's Creek" (WB), and "Monarch Cove" (Lifetime) will be joined on stage by veteran players Redd Volkaert (Merle Haggard), Cindy Cashdollar (Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, Asleep At The Wheel), Papa Mali (Ruthie Foster, Miss Lavelle White, the Killer Bees) Wendy Colonna, Rachel Loy, Beth Garner, Will Taylor, Danny Levin, and several others. Cindy Cashdollar said "The first time I heard David perform his songs, I knew I was hearing something very unique and got hooked immediately. I think it takes a lot for an artist to stand out in a music-oriented city like Austin, let alone a national industry overflowing with a well-worn path of songwriters." When asked to describe his sound, Newbould, who was recently featured in Performing Songwriter Magazine said "I suppose I like to think of my music being folk, which I describe as writing about people and the world around you." But according the Amarillo Star, "To make things easy, you could call David Newbould's music Americana. But in reality, his tunes reach across genre lines, everything from country and folk to rock and pop." METV will be taping the performance for a live DVD/CD package. The show will include songs from David's recorded catalogue, as well as some new material. David's entire catalogue is currently available at live shows, iTunes, and all major online music retailers. While this project is destined to be a major benchmark in David's career, it is only part of a busy 2008 for the Canadian singer-songwriter. He has spent time in Nashville, co-writing with established writers such as Jesse Terry (Masville Publishing), Rachel Loy, and Thad Beatty (Sugarland guitarist). Following his live taping, he will embark on his second of two extensive tours for the year. So far in 2008 he has visited New Mexico, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Ohio, Canada, and made several trips to west Texas. The year's second half will see him in these terrains, and also in the west coast. He has become a favored regular singer for Will Taylor And Strings Attached, and performs weekend concert series with them whenever possible. As time permits he will continue to record songs written in the year and a half since 2007's Big Red Sun, a process which has already begun with Austin, Texas producer Darwin Smith (David Baerwald, Will Sexton, Aimee Bobruck).

Wielding a voice as wearily distinctive as Shawn Mullins, Newbould sings every word with a dusty radiance. Though his adeptness with hazy sketches predominates, Newbould blazes brightest when blurring alternate hues of exhaustion and exuberance—a talent especially evident on “Empty Arms” (whose stretched-out phrases evoke Wilson’s trademark vocal elasticity), the graceful “Family Man” and rollicking stomper “Nobody Loves Me Like You Do,” fueled by Cindy Cashdollar’s dobro adrenaline rush. When he sings “I’d rather be a man with a broken dream / than one who never had one” under the title track’s simmering desert sheen, he’s not kidding. —GG -------------------- ...and featured in the Amarillo Globe-News: Artist’s Music Crosses Genre Lines To make things easy, you could call David Newbould’s music Americana. But in reality, his tunes reach across genre lines, everything from country and folk to rock and pop. The Canadian-born artist grew up with a love for the guitar, becoming a fan of metal and ’70s rock. Then he got into Neil Young, the artist that Newbould said first changed his outlook on music. “That’s when I realized the importance of the song and playing guitar in the parameter of the song,” he said. Newbould moved from Toronto to New York in the mid-’90s, where he would spend about seven years honing his craft and developing a fan base. Then in 2002, he left the Big Apple for Austin. “I’ve enjoyed living here a lot and music wise, it’s had its ups and downs,” he said. Newbould said his ideas of what Austin was musically were off. He said he learned the city has an insulated music culture, one where artists can have fame and success and never leave the city. Newbould compared that insulation to the Canadian music scene, which was a reason he left. So, he’s worked to build a regional fan base with hopes of moving on to a national scene. Newbould has made an effort to perform in West Texas, the Texas Panhandle and New Mexico, which, along with just living in Texas, has had an impact on his music. “That terrain really does something to music; it’s bizarre,” he said. “It’s such a visual and the way it feels makes such an impression you can’t help but have this Southern, Texan tilt to your music after a while.” Newbould is currently touring on his latest release, “Big Red Sun.” The album features many of Austin’s music legends, including Redd Volkaert and Cindy Cashdollar. Newbould will perform today at Butler’s Martini Lounge. His current tour features him and his bass player. “(At live shows) you really weed out the people who are there to listen to music and find something they like as opposed to the people who are kind of there to hang out at the bar,” he said. “Really, mostly it’s about me singing my songs to people that want to hear them.” -------------------- ...and also a feature in Go! - Lubbock's Weekly Entertainment Guide: Folk Man: You’ve heard his songs on ‘Dawson’s Creek’; now hear him in Lubbock July 10, 2008 The time he spent carving out his identity, this singer songwriter created a nice following of loyal fans. Born and raised in Canada, David Newbould, whose accent has no trace back to our Northern neighbor, describes his music revolution coming later in life. “After I decided I wasn’t going to be a guitar hero like I wanted, to be like Neil Young. I realized I needed to start writing songs,” he said. “Once I found it, I knew this was for me, and now my craft is constantly evolving.” Newbould said he found his identity and passion for music when he was playing the drums at age 11. “By the time I turned 15, it was all I cared about,” he said. Leaving his home country to pursue his dream in America, Newbould found a place, New York City. He had created a loyal fan following performing as a solo artist as well as with a band, and then he relocated to the Lone Star State’s music capitol, Austin. When asked how he describes his music, Newbould said it was difficult to answer. “For many years I have been trying to figure it out, and how to describe my music,” he said. “It is almost asking people to describe themselves. It is difficult. But I like to think of my music being folk, which I describe as writing about people and the world around you.” When Newbould talks about his writing, he said the first five or six years he put a lot of work into it. “After applying myself and where I was blocking off three to five hours a day to write, it made it comfortable for me,” he said. “You try so hard to sound like your heros, but eventually you come out with your own sound.” His own sound has appeared on five network TV shows and DVDs to date, including “Dawson’s Creek,” Paramount’s “Joan of Arcadia,” Fox’s “Party of Five,” CBS “Threshold” and “Lifetime’s “Monarch Cove.” Newbould said he feels a level of success for his music to be a part of a network show. “It is not what I was striving for,” he said, modestly. “I am more satisfied to perform a good show and people like it. That is what I do it for.” Newbould said his steady climb to stardom was by making the best music he can and by reaching as many people. “It really is what you make of it.” * When: 10 p.m. Friday. * Where: Gas Light, 5212 57th St. * Cover charge: Free. * Information: 785-1720. -------------------- 4/1/2008 Word. We had a server crash here at the site, so please bear with us while we update all the pages that have been de-updated (the shows page, and message/blog, etc...). There is lots of new info to come. 9/27/2007 Returned the other night from 2 weeks up to Boston (Cambridge) and back. That's Atlanta, Harrisburg, College Park MD, Cambridge, NYC, Asheville, Baton Rouge, and home. Another show with The Black Noodles in NY, who are becoming my band away from home. So nice. A radio performance on U of Maryland's Third Rail Live show. A lot of miles driven, a lot of Miles listened to, a cop who stripped the car looking for drugs (sorry, pal!), new friends made, new seeds planted. And now I'm broke. See you back out on the road soon. 7/22/2007 Just returned from the first leg of the "Big Red Sun" tour. Visited to Dallas, K.C., St. Louis, Chicago, Milwaukee, Champaign, Indianapolis, Cleveland, Toronto, New York, D.C., Baltimore, and all the way back. Next up is Midland, TX, followed by 2 shows in L.A. - a private showcase for North Star Media invites, and public show at Genghis Cohen. Plans are in the works after that to go up to the northeast again for some more shows, then a week in Nashville. Also in the works , which is very exciting, are plans for a 3 act tour with The Depressors (K.C.), and Lalaland (Austin). And in early '08, I am looking to do a tour of England. So lots going on. Reception to the shows and the CD have been wonderful. Will have some live performances and photos up here soon. Always, D. 4/10/2007 RECENT NEWS!
