John Newman grew up in Settle in the Yorkshire Dales. At the age of fourteen, he started to play the guitar which led him to begin writing his own songs. Naturally, he soon learnt how to record and produce musical content himself. He used this skill to create his own house tracks and did some freelance DJ'ing to gain even more experience.
When he was 20, Newman moved to London and started his own band who took part in many live gigs at a range of venues. Following this, he was spotted and signed by Island Records and produced, 'Love Me Again' as his debut single.
In May 2012, he featured in the established pop/dance group, Rudimental's single, 'Feel The Love' which reached number one in the UK charts. He then featured as the vocals in their second collaboration for the song, 'Not Giving In' during November 2012.
Now he was beginning to be recognised as an artist, he released his own single, 'Love Me Again' which peaked at number 1 in the UK charts in July 2013. Following the successof this, he released, 'Cheating' in October from his debut studio album, Tribute. He has immensely grown as an artist and become increasingly popular within the music industry in a short space of time which demonstrates the potential he has as an artist.
