NOAH GUTHRIE
Bluesy-pop singer/songwriter, Noah Guthrie, has been taking the U.S. by storm in 2014 to promote his debut album, Among the Wildest Things. Often known for his unique covers on youtube, Noah is excited to give fans a taste of his own music.
Described as having a Pop/Americana sound with soul, the 20 year old co-wrote the majority of his thirteen originals, along with his first single, Call Home. He may have been called the male version of Adele or a mix of John Legend and Dave Matthews in the past, but as his social media username shows, there is Only 1 Noah.
Born and raised in South Carolina, Noah grew up in a home filled with music. Always singing around the house, Noah credits his dad for teaching him to learn his true voice and hone his gift. When he was fourteen, Noah received his first guitar and started writing songs. As a practiced musician on the bass, guitar, and trumpet by the time he was 13, everyone around him knew early on that he had an innate gift, and after his first performance in front of people at age 13, he was already dubbed an ‘old soul’ and true talent. One of his earliest written songs (at 16,) even made the album.
Noah has been steadily building a name for himself in the music business through his live performances and cover videos and currently has over 53 million views on youtube. In May of 2012, Noah experienced the explosion that comes from a viral video when his ultra unique and blues-filled version of LMFAO’s “Sexy And I Know It” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsvlsuLau5c) earned him more than 8 million views in less than a week (now at over 21 million views.) As a result of the internet-mania, Noah was featured on NBC’s Today Show, Jay Leno’s Tonight Show, Dancing With The Stars, and several U.S. and European Radio Stations, and covers of his version have been featured on the US version of The Voice and The X Factor.
Throughout his young career, Noah has opened for a variety of artists as his powerful soulful voice and beautifully written songs appeal to a wide range of audiences. He has led off concerts for Ed Sheeran, Neon Trees, Ben Rector, Cobra Starship, Matisyahu, Matt Nathanson and Selena Gomez.
While Noah’s live performances may be his favorite aspect of being a musician, over the course of the last year, while working on his album, Noah has grown immensely as an artist. He has worked with Matt Wertz, Gabe Dixon, Josiah Rosen (Augustana), Mher Filian (Selena Gomez), Matthew Perryman Jones, Isaac Hasson (Demi Lovato, Kris Allen, Hot Chelle Rae,) Amy Stroup and Ben Rector among others, and continues to collaborate, while simultaneously posting youtube covers.
Touring and writing new music are at the top of Noah’s list for the coming year. He loves performing his music for live audiences and can’t wait to see what’s around the corner.
GABE DIXON
Gabe Dixon’s self-titled album was named as one of the “Best Of The Year” by Paste, Village Voice (year end critics poll) & others. His songs have been featured on ABC, CBS, NBC, CW and more. His song “Find My Way,” was the title theme for the #1 Sandra Bullock Film, “The Proposal.” The Lefsetz Letter, recently said of Gabe Dixon: “This man is excellent. Stunningly so. Because of his talent.” Dixon’s latest album “ONE SPARK” sees the liberated artist rocketing past his previous work. The album features collaborators ranging from members of UK rock stalwarts Snow Patrol and Starsailor to bluegrass-country icon Alison Krauss. Dixon is also recognized as the “go-to” pianist in the music industry, having handled keyboard duties for artists as varied as Paul McCartney, O.A.R. and Supertramp. In June and July 2014, Gabe hit the road for six weeks in direct support of Delta Rae. Gabe is currently working on his next album in Nashville and getting geared up for his next tour.
