Paul Carson Jeff Kastner Cham Newhouse Chris Pace Josh Pool What's Next
What's Next? is a popular Top-40 cover band out of Springfield, Mo. The professional 5-member group is sponsored by Budweiser and performs songs from today, back through the 90's, 80's, 70's and 60's. Great things are happening with the band and we're proud to play in the Ozarks, where there are so many great musicians and music lovers. We hope you will come out and see us sometime. Having fun and making sure you are having fun is as important to us as playing great sounding music.  With well over 100 shows (including many weddings and banquets, as well as clubs) since celebrating our first year together in April '05, our schedule is more demanding with every passing year, and we're excited about it. We've played at such places as the Bearded Clam for Memorial Day Weekend, the Horny Toad at Lake of the Ozarks for Halloween night the last two years, Qdoba's annual Cinco de Mayo celebration and Cartoons Oyster Bar & Grill for New Years, 2006.  We've also been featured as one of the area's best bands in 417 Magazine.  See you at the show!

The Music
What's Next? is a popular Top-40 cover band. The professional 5-member group performs songs from today, back through the 90's, 80's, 70's and 60's.

Cham Newhouse, Vocals and keyboard
Jeff Kastner, Guitars and vocals
Josh Pool, Bass and vocals
Chris Pace, Drums and Percussion
Paul Carson, Guitars


Cham Newhouse
Originally from Texas, Cham first sang in front of an audience at age 6 and has been at it ever since.  A classically trained vocalist, Cham grew up singing gospel and soul music, later adding jazz, country and rock ‘n roll to his repertoire.  His vocal flexibility contributes to the wide range of styles employed by What’s Next?.

Jeff Kastner
From the St. Louis area, Jeff started playing guitar and piano at age 16. He is also a trained vocalist, having competed in several competitions, starting at the age of 10. His hot guitar licks, bluesy vocals and high-energy stage presence are a trademark of What’s Next?. Jeff has a personal website located here.

Josh Pool
Josh is from London, Arkansas.  The free spirit of the band, Josh learned to play guitar at 16 and picked up the bass at 18.  He also has played with several bands around town and has recorded with a major record producer.  When Josh gets into a groove, there's no mistaking that he is definitely "feeling it".

Chris Pace
Chris hails from Fordland, Missouri and has been playing the drums for 16 years.  He has played in many local bands during that time.  Together, Chris and Josh provide the searing backbeat for the band.

Paul Carson
The guitar prodigy.  Paul Carson is originally from Memphis, TN.  His style was most definitely learned from that of Eddie Van Halen, but Paul has since formulated his own unique sound and style and his melodic solos are his signature.  His guitar technique is among the very best in the area and his licks are second to none.  While priding himself on "tasteful licks", Paul is also capable of hand speed (while retaining clarity) that few other guitarists can match.
