Josh Newton (born June 8, 1973 in New Bedford, Massachusetts) was the bass player for Every Time I Die until the 12th October 2011. He is also the singer and guitarist of The Great Fire of Sixteen Sixty Six. He was a member of the following rock bands: Shiner, From Autumn To Ashes, Biology, Glazed Baby, Season to Risk, Iron Rite Mangle, Shots Fired, Reggie and the Full Effect, and The Great Fire of 1666. Newton also did a tour playing rhythm guitar for Unsane in 1994 with Today Is The Day.

He currently resides in Brooklyn, New York with his wife and two dogs.

In August 2004, Newton was recruited to play bass for From Autumn To Ashes after original bassist Mike Pilato left. He met the band when they opened for Reggie and the Full Effect on the Vagrant America tour. Upon leaving FATA in August 2007, he was immediately invited to play bass with Every Time I Die for a tour with Underoath. He was recently announced via twitter as the bassist for The Damned Things with members of Fall Out Boy and Anthrax.

Newton recently filled in on several shows for Danish rockers Volbeat when their bassist had to return to Denmark suddenly.

On October 12, 2011 it was announced that Newton and Every Time I Die had amicably parted ways, following the end of their international tour with The Acacia Strain.
