EDITORS’ NOTES
With his broad, confident trumpet tone and lyrical phrasing, Portland-based Farnell Newton has proven an asset on tours with such R&B standouts as Jill Scott and Bootsy Collins. As a straight-ahead jazz player he’s fierce, with impeccable chops and an aesthetic refinement that comes across here in his readings of Freddie Hubbard (“Arietas”) and Wayne Shorter (“El Gaucho”). Newton cultivates a full-band sound: His frontline blend with trombonist Kyle Molitor is exceptional, as is Greg Goebel’s piano throughout.

Everything is coming ”Back to Earth” when trumpet player extraordinaire Farnell Newton steps onto the jazz scene with his first record for Posi-Tone. This hard hitting session also features the inspired playing and cool comping of Greg Goebel on piano, the steady underpinning of Dylan Sundstrom on bass, the bombastic metrics of Christopher Brown on drums, and the inspired playing of wunderkind Kyle Molitor on trombone. Melodies are the message, and all the song selections are definitely straight forward, while always remaining elegantly lyrical and brilliantly evocative of a more modern jazz sensibility. With an amazing combination of talent, brilliant performances, and an exciting program of music, including several amazing new original compositions, Farnell Newton’s latest record "Back to Earth" is sure to bring bright moments to jazz fans everywhere.
