Jimmy Newquist with Caroline's Spine

By Misty Fowler, Park City Voyeur Contributor

Jimmy Newquist, lead singer for the band Caroline’s Spine, played acoustic on Sunday evening at the Star Bar. He will be returning Monday night, January 19, with the whole band.

If you aren’t familiar with the music of Caroline’s Spine, there are a few songs that are not to be missed. His song “Sullivan” is the true story of the five Sullivan brothers lost during WWII. He recently played this song at the opening of the Sullivan Brothers Iowa Veterans Museum in Waterloo, with the Sullivan brothers’ family in attendance. Crowd favorites also include “Work Song”, often known as “The Ice Cream Song”, and “Varsity Blues” from the title track of the movie with the same name.

Jimmy Newquist has an amazing voice that almost anyone will fall in love with. You may find yourself singing along after the first verse of many songs, because the band really knows how to excite the crowd, and pull everyone into the songs they play.

The free show begins at 9 PM at the Star Bar, with the local band Jack Jones opening.
