    Artist History
    Brooks Newton has played and recorded with a number of very talented musicians. Both of his album efforts have been produced on a tight budget with minimum of practice time with the band. Newton sends each musician a "low-fi" tape of the songs, then schedules studio time. The result was recorded and a small part of these sessions are presented to you for free right here and now.
