Following a 4 star live review in the Evening Standard and his second album ‘REBUILT BY HUMANS’ reaching No.3, Newton Faulkner is heading to Plymouth Pavilions on Tuesday 9 March 2010.
‘REBUILT BY HUMANS’ is the follow-up to his debut album, the Number 1, million-selling ‘Hand Built By Robots’– which spent over 10 months inside the Top 40 Album Chart, and became one of the Top 20 Biggest Selling UK digital albums of all time, producing massive hit singles like ‘Dream Catch Me’, which spent an outstanding 43 Weeks in the Top 100.
There’s a good reason why the Brit-nominated acoustic-guitar virtuoso Newton Faulkner’s second album is called ‘REBUILT BY HUMANS’. At the start of this year, the singer-songwriter broke his wrist in France and dislocated his entire right hand. Faulkner nearly lost the movement in his hand and after a series of painful procedures by French medics and a career saving operation at home in the UK, Newton was successfully rebuilt by humans and within days was back doing what he loves most, playing his guitar as taught by the legendary Eric Roche.
Newton says “I wanted to avoid the classic second album thing of complaining about how great things have gone and all the hard work. I had brilliant fun making this album and hopefully it sounds that way. That’s another reason why If This Is It is great for the first single: hopefully it comes across as quite grateful. Because I am grateful”.
Thanks to the fans and to the doctors, Newton Faulkner is back on the live circuit and can’t be missed.
