The New Acoustics

About Me

From the mid to late 90's, The New Acoustics played on the Bristol live scene, earning a solid reputation for unique songwriting and great playing. The core 3 members were Pete Webber, Jonathan Westrupp & Billy Fuller in the early days and then moving up to a 5 piece band (minus Pete Webber) from 2003 to there demise in late 2005. Two albums were made by the band, in 2003 they released "Mountains Is Easy", a 16 track retrospective taking in early cassette recordings at rehearsals mixed in with studio material up to 2001. Then in 2005, Billy & John wrote the album "Meteors The Entire Night", recording some material at Billy's house and finishing off at J & J studios, Bristol, with Jim Barr in the hot seat. All the songs in the player are taken from both albums. John & Billy have now carried on together but under the new monicker, CARNIVORES OF THE ROCKIES.
