Charlie Newcomb - Keyboard

Rising from the Valleys of Neptune, Charlie emerged in the late sixties deep in the Seneca Nation of the Finger Lakes in an Iroqois countryside lazy suburban buzz. For the past 20 years he's made his home in the land of Kamehameha on the Big Island.  The Newcombs are a musical family & Charlie began classical violin at age six.  Inspired by Pete Seeger & The Weavers he began writing songs on the ukulele at age eight, switching to guitar and going electric at age thirteen after hearing the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Who, Donovan, the Byrds, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, The Guess Who, Pink Floyd, The Grateful Dead, Neil Young, CSN, the Doors, Led Zeppelin, King Crimson, and Yes.  He's still deeply into this music.
