Song Of The Soul

Joe Newberry has a wonderful voice, and writes tunes & lyrics to enrich that wonderful voice to the point of sublime. Writing music that tends toward old-timey, bluegrass, spirtuals, torch songs, & more beyond that, Joe's songs draw deeply on the Missouri of his youth and the North Carolina of his adulthood. Renowned for his clawhammer banjo playing, Joe has won multiple awards from the IBMA, and was a frequent performer on A Prairie Home Companion. He performed with the Red Clay Ramblers, Big Medicine, and in duos with Mike Compton and April Verch, among others. All songs are written and performed by Joe Newberry, unless otherwise noted: Baby I'm Blue - from Going Home, Joe Newberry & April Verch Resurrection Day - live performance on Prairie Home Companion with Joe Newberry, Garrison Keillor, Heather Masse, & the Exchange Street Quartet The Darker the Night, the Better I See - live performance with Joe Newberry, Jon Shain,& JF Ventre Reminiscent - from Crow the Dawn with Joe Newberry, Jo
