Bibliography
Tim Newby is the author of Bluegrass in Baltimore: The Hard Drivin’ Sound and its Legacy as well as a contributor to publications such as Relix, Paste Magazine, Honest Tune, Glide Magazine, B’More Live, and Music Monthly. His broad knowledge and personal experiences with the emerging jam scene and Leftover Salmon provide him with an especially deep background and skill-set with which to write this book.
History is made by those who write it, not the musicians who can’t
remember it. Tim Newby knows our history and now it’s up to him to
teach us what happened!
*Vince Herman, Leftover Salmon*
The gift of Tim Newby’s book is its depth and honesty, a thorough
guide covering a thirty-year journey of a truly remarkable band. In
addition to their story of friendships and losses, musical
discoveries and Wild West adventures, it is a tale of the brethren
they surround themselves with who fortify Salmon’s unique
voice.
*Bill Payne, Little Feat*
Tim Newby has somehow managed to capture the unique combination of
personalities that is Leftover Salmon, a feat that I would have
thought fairly impossible. Tim weaves his story through the
sensibilities of the individual players which creates a wonderful
kaleidoscope resulting in the definitive biography of a band that
is still constantly changing and growing into their fourth
decade.
*Steve Berlin, Los Lobos*
So great (and surprising!) to learn the history and origins of
Leftover Salmon. There's so much more to these guys then I thought
I knew, and I met Vince and Drew twenty years ago. True
pioneers in music. If you're a fan, definitely worth the
read!
*Adam Aijala, Yonder Mountain String Band*
Tim Newby’s books lead music fans deeper into the world of the
artists he writes about. Even after more than 40 years of studying
the music, I learned so much from his book.
*Tim O'Brien, Hot Rize*
This detailed account of a loving group of musicians who dared be
themselves is a testimony to the power of music to bring the world
together through love of the creative originals that we all are
meant to be.
*Jeff "Apt. Q-258" Sipe*
