Joe Newberry

 

Missouri native and North Carolina transplant Joe Newberry has made music most of his life. He grew up in a family full of singers and dancers, took up the guitar and banjo as a teenager, and learned fiddle tunes from great Missouri fiddlers. He plays with Bruce Molsky and Rafe Stefanini as the Jumpsteady Boys, in a duo with mandolinist Mike Compton, and in a quartet with old-time music legends Bill Hicks, Mike Craver, and Jim Watson.

Everyone on his Dad’s side of the family sang — on his mom’s side they sang and danced.

“My mother’s brother, Tom, was a great tap dancer and well into his seventies he could take a big napkin and tap dance on it and not mess it up.”

Joe is a dancer, too. When he was a young boy his mother taught him to dance the box step and waltz. “At some point you’ll be at a dance and none of the other boys will know how to dance but you will, she told him.”

He later learned to clog and now claims to be a “recovering clogger” in a 12-step program.

Last Time on the Road



Surrounded by music, Joe was drawn to it for the same reason a lot of young men are. “I liked this girl who was taking guitar lessons, so I thought I could get some favor with her if I took lessons, too.”

He remembers getting his first guitar. “It was all I wanted for Christmas and my mother told me they couldn’t afford it. On our way to visit family, mom feigned ill and asked if she could lie down on the back seat. When they pulled back the blankets there was the guitar for me.”



Joe has written a lot of classic songs including “Singing As We Rise,” which drew the attention of the pastor at Joe’s former hometown church.

“I got an email from him and he didn’t know that I went to that church and asked permission to sing my song in church. I told him, “If you look in the third pew on the left from the pulpit, that’s where everybody in this song sat.”

Music makes the world small according to Joe. “My songs are being sung by friends and strangers, and in churches and at funerals and that’s the highest honor there is.

  • I was involved in a scam with a company called Option FM in 2017 and lost £166,831.00 and thought all was lost until I contacted RecoveryHacker101 @ Gmail com in 2020. They were confident they could help me as they had dealt with Option FM before; they were very professional with my case, from dealing with my bank to the Ombudsman service. It is now March 2022, and my case has been settled in full with compensation of £325.000 just being put back into my account; a big thank you to RecoveryHacker101.

  • I want to give this testimony in respect of Great Odunga who made me win $512 Million Dollars in the Lottery by matching the 5 numbers for me. I am happy to be out of financial debt and be able to help my family in this seasonal period of fun and cheer. I contacted Great Odunga through Whats-App (+2348167159012) when I told him to help me win the Mega Millions and He told me that it would be spiritually checked if I will win the Lottery. When he informed me that I will not be able to win the Jackpot but I will win a huge amount in the lottery I was not completely sad but had great faith in him. I live in Freeland, Saginaw County, Michigan and I would say it was pretty hard to send him the money for the spell before he gave me the winning numbers to play. He sent me the numbers and I played. The next morning after the drawing, I matched the five white balls in the Aug. 4 drawing to win $256 million: 11-30-45-52-56. Thanks to the Megaplier X2, my prize was multiplied to $512million. Thank You Great Odunga for this wonderful experience with you. You too can contact Great Odunga at his Whats-App +2348167159012 or Email: odungaspelltemple@outlook.com / odungaspelltemple@gmail.com

  • Reviews and comments can be helpful most times. permit me to share that, in the first week of March 2024, I was convinced to invest in a fake Altcoin cryptocurrency platform through someone I connected with on Telegram , which I did but unfortunately after investing my money I discovered I could not withdraw or access my account on the fake platform. Lucky for me, I came across a review on funds recovery and I contacted Coinsrecoveryworldwide Service, and through their help and support I was able to recover my money. Losing money trading crypto can be frustrating but I am happy today that my funds are recovered and I wish to share with you their contacts as i know i am not alone on this boat, nobody deserves to be in such situation.

  • Hello everyone, I am really grateful to God for leading my way to meet Doctor Odunga who gave me the winning numbers to the Powerball lottery to win $1.3 Billion Dollars. My name is Cheng Saephan, I am 46 years old and I have been diagnosed with Cancer for over 8 years now. I live in Portland, Oregon. My wife Duanpen has done everything she can to cure me of this illness until a friend of hers Laiza Chao introduced Doctor Odunga to her that he can cure all types of illness. My wife told me about this man and I didn’t say much but thank God she did contact him through his email. I quickly learned that this man can also make people win the lottery and I just couldn’t resist asking him first to do a lottery spell for me because I have been playing the lottery almost everyday since I can remember. It didn’t take time at all when this man gave me the winning numbers for the Powerball and I played it and won the Powerball Jackpot of $1.3 Billion Dollars. This man blessed my family and also cured me of Cancer. Thank You Doctor Odunga. I have testified about your work sir and hope to bring serious ones to you for help too. Contact him at odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and also Whats-app +2348167159012

  • Being the winner of a multi-million dollar lottery certainly is a life-changing event for almost every single lottery winner. My name is Mavis Wanczyk from Chicopee, Massachusetts, the famous PowerBall lottery winner of $758 million (£591m). I know many people would wonder how I had won the lottery. Would you believe me if I told you that I did it with spell casting? I met this famous spell caster known as Doctor Odunga and he was the one who did it for me. As shocking as it was to me, my famous comment to the press was “ I’m going to go and hide in my bed.” Never did I believe that Doctor Odunga made me wealthy overnight. If you want to have your chance of winning and becoming very wealthy just like me, contact Doctor Odunga at odungaspelltemple@gmail.com OR WHATS-APP HIM at +2348167159012 and you will be lucky. Thanks for reading and hope to see you at the top
