Newtboy
Just 1 member: me, Newtboy. Born and raised in the South Bay, Redondo Beach, CA. to be exacto. I hate the radio other than the Jazz station so I always try to make music that won't appeal to commercial radio. I could care less about money, there are many musicians/dj's that have a good following without the radio play.
I just want you and me to hear something new and unpredictable so I hope your surprised.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
(Rap) Low budget productions: 1988-89?
(Thrash/improve) A for effort: 1994-2000?
(All styles) Newtboy: 1999-????
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I'm alive when I play so I would say: yeah.
No, I don't play for crowds, I don't think the music I make is made for crowd pleasure.
I used to play in a thrash improve band: A for effort, and we all hooked up some "groupies" the 1st and only show we played so that was kinda a special moment.
