The one and only successor to Violent Femmes
Brett Newski is a young American singer-songwriter who, when everything seemed to be going wrong in his life, headed to Vietnam in 2011. He wrote more than 100 songs there, sought a few musicians, and recorded his first album there too. He toured South-East Asia, South Africa and the US with that band.
Fast Forward to 2015. Brett Newski is releasing his 4th album and it was produced by Violent Femmes chieftain Victor DeLorenzo.
To promote the new album, Newski will be making a brief solo tour of Europe, dropping by Huis23 while doing so.
His infectious (punk-)folk rock is the ideal stuff for fans of Frank Turner, Billy Bragg and the above-mentioned The Violent Femmes. But his work is just as easily compared to Jack White, Bright Eyes and Eliott Murphy.
