Newton Returns

UK songwriting sensation Newton Faulkner will be returning to his Cornish fan base with a gig in Truro this October. Newton who has enjoyed huge success following the release of 'Hand Built By Robots' will play at the Hall for Cornwall on October 26.

Newton originally from Surrey enjoyed huge success in the UK charts with his triple-platinum album 'Hand Built By Robots', getting into the top ten with the single 'Dream catch me' and amassing a huge following after releasing 'Teardrop', an interesting re-work of the Massive Attack Classic.

The songwriter is returning to the county this winter with a new tour to coincide with the release of his second and follow up album 'Rebuilt by Humans' in September.

Before shooting into the mainstream, Newton amassed a huge following playing the local circuit in places like Falmouth's Princess Pavilions and Perranporth's Watering Hole.

Since then he has enjoyed playing to thousands at festivals like Glastonbury and has even hosted an intimate show for local fans at Carnglaze caverns.
