Dave Newhouse (born in Hawaii in 1953) was a founding member of The Muffins in 1973, and participated in the group during its various incarnations until the final dissolution in 2016. Newhouse has also collaborated with a large number of other artists, including Fred Frith, Rascal Reporters, Guapo, and more. Manna / Mirage is essentially a Dave Newhouse band project modeled on the original AmeriCanterbury sound that The Muffine produced on their first few albums.
