NOAH GUTHRIE
Americana singer-songwriter, Noah Guthrie’s sound has been described as possessing Chris Stapleton’s country/rock grit with the authenticity of Jason Isbell. The unique soulfulness in his richly textured voice and the unmistakable Southern influence in his music makes him capable of conveying emotion as only a handful of artists can in today’s musical landscape. Noah’s latest album, BLUE WALL, honors the Blue Ridge Mountains where he grew up and still resides. Noah’s versatility and distinct voice is evident. However, Noah isn’t trying to box himself into any specific genre. For him, it’s just about making good, honest music – music that sounds like him – music that relates – music that makes the listener feel something.
Noah has built a strong following through powerful live performances, social media and television. He has released three critically-acclaimed albums. He has also performed on NBC’s Today Show and Tonight Show, Hallmark Channel’s Home & Family, and ABC’s Dancing with the Stars. The producers at the hit FOX TV show, GLEE, discovered his YouTube channel and were so impressed with Noah’s voice, that they recruited him as a cast member for the sixth season of the show. Noah was also a semi-finalist on the 13th season of America’s Got Talent.
ROOFMAN
Manche Songs brauchen den Glamour des Großstadtlebens, den Asphaltdschungel und das urbane Drama, gehüllt in weißes Rauschen. Andere brauchen nicht mehr als einen Wald, das ruhige Flüstern des Windes in den Blättern. Es ist nicht schwer zu erraten, aus welcher Welt Thijs van der Meulen alias Roofman stammt. Der niederländische Indie-Folk-Newcomer braucht die Natur wie die Luft zum Atmen und verliebte sich schon als Teenager in den Wald, als seine Eltern einen Campingplatz zwischen den Bäumen kauften. Warum sein wunderschönes Debüt „Still The Mess I Was“ bei aller urbanen Abkehr dann aber doch so groß, so glorreich klingt? Weil er es in Hamburgs analogem Himmel, dem Clouds Hill Studio, aufgenommen hat. Die Bäume und die Straßen, die Ruhe und der Sturm: Roofman ist ein Mann der Kontraste.
