Emerging from the ashes of traditional music, Newbridge is a powerful blend of Americana, folk, and roots-rock from Halifax, Nova Scotia. The band features Canadian music veterans Keith Maddison (Maddison Avenue), Glen Nicholson (In-Flight Safety), Jeff Mosher (The Mellotones, Matt Andersen), Warren Robert (Myles Goodwyn, Pogey), and Robbie Crowell (Sturgill Simpson, Deer Tick, Midland, Matt Mays), each with a wealth of experience and a drive to forge their own sound.

The group’s musical journey led them to Nashville, Tennessee, where they recorded their debut album at the legendary Creative Workshops Studio (CWS), co-produced by the talented Robbie Crowell. Built in 1971, CWS has hosted legendary recording sessions with Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings, the Doobie Brothers, and Rod Stewart and was the backdrop to the iconic music documentary film ‘Heartworn Highways’.

Drawing from diverse influences such as The Band, Van Morrison, The Wallflowers, Tom Petty, and Stan Rogers, Newbridge blends folk and country roots with a bluesy rock/R&B feel. Collaborating with Nashville heavyweights Laur Joamets (Sturgill Simpson), Cory Younts (Old Crow Medicine Show), Shannon McNally (Dr. John, Levon Helm), and Amber Woodhouse (Trigger Hippy), they've crafted a unique range of songs, from heartfelt ballads to roll-the-windows-down summer anthems. "We knew early on we had something special, something worth pursuing. Once we recorded a few demos, we sent them to our old pal Robbie in Nashville. Right away he encouraged us to make the pilgrimage down to Nashville and make a record with him. He was really into it. The stars aligned, so how could we say no?” explains Maddison.

As they gear up to release their debut 10-track LP, Newbridge is poised to make their mark. They aim to connect with fans through curated live performances to captivate audiences and build fans for life. You can find more information on Newbridge on social and streaming platforms listed below.
