Jonathan Moorefield, Newland's brother, can be heard on 9 out of 12 songs on Threads of MercuryHe also co-wrote "South First Street".

An eighteen-year veteran of recording and extensive road work with various artists, such as The Platters, Jason D Williams (of Jerry Lee Lewis fame), Jim Dandy w/ Black Oak Arkansas, Nazareth, and Pat Travers (just to name a few), Jonathan first hit the road at age seventeen after studying drums and percussion at the University of Tennessee. Working out of Atlanta, Nashville, Kansas City, New Orleans, and Jackson influenced his musical flavor for versatility.

"I was exposed to every style of music," he says,"and I had the pleasure of learning from the best musicians around. Blues, jazz, rock, heavy metal, techno, country, classical. You name it!!! I soaked it all in."

He currently resides in Jackson, Mississippi, where he can be seen weekly in just about every club and venue, playing drums and singing with recording artist and songwriter Hunter Gibson, the retro super group The Intangibles, and the blues/rock ensemble Debbie Buie and The Yesmen. He is also a driving force behind the 16-piece high-energy R&B showband known as The Bluz Boyz.

Jonathan also freelances session recordings and teaches private drum lessons.
