Noah Guy

Singer/songwriter Noah Guy is known for his emotionally raw, genre-bending sound, bringing together his Philly soul roots with pop, hip-hop, and R&B. It’s a textured, sanguine vibe he debuted on 2020′s Sumday and which he has further expanded on EPs like 2021′s is it real? and 2022′s Who's Taken Time?! (Act 1).
A native of Philadelphia, Guy grew up crate digging at local record shops, discovering the work of classic Philly icons Gamble & Huff as well as R&B artists like the Roots and Musiq Soulchild. He became more serious about music in college (playing guitar and writing songs), eventually transferring to NYU, where he studied film and interned at the Brooklyn-based Fool's Gold label. It was after he moved back home to live with his parents during the early part of the COVID-19 pandemic that he began digging deeper into recording his music, bringing together his love of singer/songwriter pop, hip-hop, rap, and more. In quick succession, he delivered two EPs, 2020′s Sumday and 2021′s is it real? Following a move to Los Angeles, he issued a third EP, 2022′s Who's Taken Time?! (Act 1). Included on the release were the tracks “2 Dogs 1 Leash” and “Small Talk Carolina,” the latter of which featured the Spirit of New Orleans Gospel Choir. ~ Matt Collar
