Description
The Newbees from Covington, KY, formed in May 2004, when husband and wife duo, Jeff & Misty Perholtz, met Tim Seiwert and Chris Damele. The four developed an immediate connection through their love of vocal harmony, upbeat melodies and rootsy grooves. In Fall 2005, the group added rising piano powerhouse Sharon Udoh to the mix.
The Newbees made their debut performance on May 21st, 2004 at York Street Cafe in Newport, Kentucky. Since then, the Newbees have been playing regularly at regional venues and festivals including The Motor City Music Conference, The Midwest Entertainment Industry Conference, Taste of Cincinnati, Gliers Goetta Fest, Mainstrasse Oktoberfest and the Midpoint Music Festival. They have performed on radio stations throughout the country, including local favorites WNKU 89.7, WAIF 88.3 and the Mojo 94.9. They have also been featured in various e-zines, magazines and newspapers including CityBeat and CinWeekly.
The Newbees released their nationally recognized debut CD "Songs from a Dilapidated Apartment" in October 2004, followed by a successful radio tour, adding The Newbees to playlists throughout the United States.
The Newbees recently released their long-awaited second album "Famous" in December 2006.
