<h3>BIO</h3>
<p>Noah Kite is a Portland, Oregon based songwriter shaping pop jazz and classical influences to accent folk's lyrical poignancy. This chambered folk-rock finds its roots in a childhood exposure to Ravel, Sade, Van Morrison, Enya, and Steely Dan, to name a few. Over the last few years myriad experiences teaching, traveling, and touring abroad have all given fuel to a tension of melody and metaphor that is best distilled in the recent release he spent May touring Europe to support. While these dynamically orchestrated dramas find an expansively symphonic home on the eponymous record, in live settings arrangements are sparse; Kite’s guitar and voice accompanied by the haunting oboe of Laura Gershman are laced with choice moments of stacked and looped ambient textures from horn and axe alike.

<p class='quote-text'>"Kite’s folksy pop aesthetic feels almost classically composed, with intricate harmonies, complex orchestrations and layered rhythms. His voice is an absolute powerhouse, with a raspy tinge that lends his songs intense personality ... He’s one-of-a-kind."</p>
