Newton Faulkner

Brit-nominated Newton Faulkner – the acoustic-guitar virtuoso returns with his eagerly anticipated second album ‘REBUILT BY HUMANS’ through Sony Music on 18th September 2009.

The album is preceded by the instant-hit first single ‘If This Is It’. This album is the follow-up to his debut album, the UK Number 1, million-selling ‘Hand Built By Robots’ – which reached Number 5 on the ARIA albums chart in Australia, and became one of the Top 20 Biggest Selling UK digital albums of all time, producing massive hit singles like ‘Dream Catch Me’, which also went top 5 in Australia and achieved double platinum sales. ‘Dream Catch Me’ was also a massive radio hit in Australia, holding the Number 1 position on the national airplay chart for eight consecutive weeks. There’s a good reason why 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! There is something very, very special about Newton Faulkner and when you see him perform “If This Is It” intimate and in the ROUND on Rove this Sunday.
