Recently tipped as being
one of the hottest bands to emerge from Liverpool, Newborn is a 3 -
piece band consisting of David Burgess (guitar and vocals), Tom
Hughes (bass guitar and vocals) and Adam Helsby (drums).
David Burgess was
born 22nd October 1985. He has been playing guitar for 5 years and
has played in many previous bands.
Tom Hughes was born
7th April 1986. He has been playing bass for 3 years and played his
first show with the band only hours after joining.
Adam Helsby was born
3rd May 1988. He has been playing drums ever since he was young and
got his first drum kit aged 6.
The legend that is
Newborn started whilst all the members were still in high school.
David and Adam had been looking for a bass player to complete the
line-up and through having no success, turned to their friend Tom to
join the band. Tom had never played bass before. The challenge lay
down by David and Adam, was a success, and Tom excelled and within
weeks he was ready to join up with the band.
With the new line-up
intact, Newborn immediately started gigging and have played at some
of the best venues that their home town of Liverpool has to offer.
To begin with, Newborn played cover songs but it was when they
started writing their own material that their potential started to
show. This transition helped expose Newborn to a whole new group of
fans and it was at this point the band started to establish a loyal
home town following. Newborn recently recorded a 4 song demo at
"The Ranch" studios in Liverpool and are currently setting
up a tour of the U.K
