About

NUPORT was conceived in the Early 90's a musical group made up of musicians with great chemistry which is the concept of Nuport . The name Nuport was first spelled "Newport" then recently changed to "NU" which means fresh, or newbie and "Port" meaning a harbor of music to take in or discharge. The Original Personnel was Myself-Glenn Brown: Keyboards, Vocals, Jo-Jo Humphrey: Bass, Vocals, Charles Thomas: Drums: ( Memphis) Michael McDaniels: Lead & Rythmn Guitar, Tim Baskins:Tenor Saxophone, & the Late Felix Dixon: Alto Saxophone. Since then we have re grouped and re-organized and improved our delivery and style keeping with the same concept and chemistry with current members...Glenn Brown: Keyboards, Vocals, Band leader, Windel Dancer& Zico : Bass, Vocals, Guy busch: Drums, James Sharp: Saxophone Christopher Brown: Trumpet & Chris Williams: Lead Guitar . We can perform all music genres specializing in Smooth Jazz, Funk, R&B, Blues & Top 40
