Joey Newman (ASCAP) is a third generation film composer of the famed Hollywood musical Newman dynasty. A drummer, conductor, and orchestrator, he earned his degree from the Berklee College of Music. He got his start working in television, co-composing with Emmy®-winning composer W.G. “Snuffy” Walden. For five years, Joey composed the orchestral score to NCsoft’s LINEAGE, one of the biggest online role-playing games in history. As a conductor and orchestrator, Joey has worked across the media spectrum including orchestrating for his cousin Randy and conducting alongside Michael Tilson Thomas and John Williams.
Joey’s music can currently be heard on the hit ABC comedy THE MIDDLE, starring Patricia Heaton, and TLC’s docu-reality series, LITTLE PEOPLE, BIG WORLD, for which his underscore was nominated for a Primetime Emmy® Award. Recent film credits include the 9/11-inspired drama THE SPACE BETWEEN (starring Oscar® winner Melissa Leo); the comedy MY UNCLE RAFAEL (starring Missi Pyle and John Michael Higgins), the 2013 Oscar®-nominated animated short film ADAM AND DOG, and the multiple award-winning drama ANY DAY NOW (starring Alan Cumming) in theaters now.
