Angela Newcomb and her husband Oj Newcomb have together created ‘The Dawn Light’, combining Angela’s love of the mystic poetry of Francis Brabazon and Daniel Ladinsky (Renderings of Hafiz) with stunning musical compositions performed by a stellar cast of musicians. With Angela’s soulful, angelic vocals and the jazz influence of Brodie Graham on guitar, the smooth beats of Charles Wall (AKA Bobby Alu) on drums, Michael Manikus on keys (Former Musical Director for 10 Tenors for over a decade) and Sarah King on violin as well as Oj Newcomb on Bass (John Butler Trio, Ash Grunwald & more), they traverse a wide scope of musical genres that include soul, blues, R&B, Latin, Folk and World music. Their debut album has so far been enjoyed by audiences at the National Folk Festival, Woodford Folk Festival, Caloundra Music Festival and the band recently received 2 nominations for Queensland Music awards for ‘Last Evening’ and ‘The Moon was Low’, and they continue to make gentle waves across the music industry as they’re discovered and treasured by lovers of divine music and stunning musicianship across the globe.
