My Name is… Farnell Newton

I am… A Trumpeter, Producer, PSU Professor, Husband and a Father to 5 beautiful children

I like it when…. I have a wonderful day teaching, chillin with the fam and then ending the night off with a dope show.

One thing I wish the Northwest would share with the world is… I think the world needs more hipsters and the NW are the capitol of self proclaimed hipsters.

One thing I wish the world would share with the Northwest is… More Sun and less Rain

Something I have coming up is… My debut album “Class Is Now In Session” is out and you can grab it for the time being at http://farnellnewton.bandcamp.com/ and soon worldwide thru the web and the UK. Every year I always look forward to playing at the BET/CENTRIC Soul Train Awards.

This is exciting because… It shows my eclectic taste in music and represents the music that I love. Hip Hop, Soul, Jazz, R&B and more. It also features some of the dopest musicians & Producers in the NW from Tony Ozier, Steveland Swatkins, Tyrone Hendrix, Dennis Dove, Chris Turner, Michael “Beatzilla” Whitmore, AG Donnaloia, Jans Ingber, Toni Hill, Jarrod Lawson & recorded and mixed by Yamio 263 and mastered by Dana White of Specialized Mastering…….yeah!
