Singer/songwriter/guitarist Paul Colman joins the Newsboys.

IN A SURPRISE move Australia's Paul Colman, after several years touring and recording with the Paul Colman Trio and the successful launch of a solo career with 2005's 'Let It Go' album, has joined award winning pop rockers the Newsboys as their new guitarist. The group announced just a week ago that former guitarist Bryan Olesen was leaving the band. Said Paul, "We've been mates for a long time and it truly feels like I'm joining a bunch of friends that I have a lot of history with. I am thrilled to be a part of the Newsboys."
