NEWT: A Short Documentary...
...is a moving tribute to a man whose story embodies the soul of Southern music. It shares the remarkable life story of Newton Collier — a legendary trumpet player and Macon, Georgia native whose music career placed him alongside icons like Sam & Dave, Otis Redding, and the Pinetoppers. From his early days in the South to his final performance in Madison Square Garden, Newton’s journey is one of talent, resilience, and community. In 1976, tragedy struck when Newt survived a near-fatal shooting, costing him his ability to play trumpet — until decades later, when a custom instrument allowed him to make music once again by simply humming. This documentary captures Newt’s enduring spirit, the history of a vibrant music scene, and the love Macon continues to show one of its own.
