Bio

Growing up in a military family and moving from town to town throughout his early childhood, Noah had to build new relationships and friendships. At times these transitional periods in his life were often difficult, but they would bring the family of four closer together. They would always travel to see family, which lead to many road trips and music in the car. His parents would play anything from Motown to Jazz and Rock. His older brother Joshua, who Noah considered his best friend, was also a huge influence. He helped introduce Noah to a number of music genres in his early childhood ranging from Rock to R&B/hip hop, etc.

Upon entering high school, Noah struggled to make friends early on, which opened the door to songwriting and poetry. Babyface, Brian McKnight and other R&B artists became highly influential, which led to a shortly lived R&B project.

A couple years after high school, Noah borrowed a nylon string guitar from a family member who opened up a new avenue for his love of music. His old roommate and close friend Finch helped guide Noah through his musical process. The two would often spend hours on the couch strumming their guitars jokingly searching for the “impossible” chord.

It wasn’t until Noah attended the University of Arizona where his passion for music became a major emphasis in his life. It was then that he was introduced to the piano. Eager to learn, Noah’s instructor asked what type of piano he practices on. Noah deflected toward saying he owned one, which was actually a $20 Techno-Beat battery operated electronic keyboard.

During college Noah performed a couple shows but never built the courage to perform original material consistently. Noah performed many collegiate piano recitals from his favorite works of Fredrick Chopin and Duke Ellington, which gave him a look into other avenues of music.

At the age of 31 with a total of five suitcases in hand, he and his wife Celia decided to leave the Arizona desert for the skyscrapers of New York City to pursue their dreams. It was a tough transitional phase for them, but Noah and Celia leaned on each other to overcome the obstacles of adjusting to a new big city life. Throughout his challenges in adapting to the fast paced world, Noah would often reach out to his father, Armando, his hero, for guidance.

You’ll find Noah strumming his heart out and tickling the ivories on stage at a local venue as he continues to search for that impossible chord. Noah's lyrics promote the seek of self happiness through life's losses, heartbreaks, self identity and Love. Influences: Babyface, Dave Matthews Band, Brian McKnight, Cat Stevens, U2, James Taylor, Tom Petty and his love for Tacos.
