Postcards From Home is Noah Earle's second CD of original material, and his first CD to be released on Missouri-based MayApple Records. Years of constant performing and writing combined with an abundance of natural talent are beginning to pay dividends, as this young songwriter consistently draws audiences and glowing reviews. Noah Earle was born in Topeka, Kansas, "a good place to dig potatoes." Surrounded by a musical family, he absorbed various strains of influence. His musical involvement began in early childhood when he would listen to the traditional country and country-gospel music that his family would play and sing at their gatherings. Between the ages of about 5 and 18 he underwent classical training for piano, voice and fiddle (his grandpa said "never let anybody call it a violin"). By the age of 10, he had decided that he wanted to write songs, like his uncle and grandfather. Throughout this time, he was also exposed to blues and jazz by his dad and uncle, both of whom performed in a number of bands. From these surroundings Noah has emerged as a formidable solo artist, displaying unmistakable talent through his deft finger-picking guitar style and an agile, soulful approach to his singing. Earle's first release for MayApple Records, Postcards From Home, finds him focusing his songwriting solidly in the Americana vein. His imaginative narrative style emerges from a lifetime of Midwest experience – fireworks, Keystone Light, channel cats, Quik Shops. Now residing on a farm in Hallsville , Missouri, he need only step outside to his own garden for earthly inspiration, reaping sentiments like those found in the heart-warming title track. Produced by Mark Bilyeu of Big Smith, Postcards is largely a stripped-down affair, a showcase for Earle's playing and singing, but also benefits from the tasteful performances of the top tier of musicians in and around Springfield, Missouri. Others have been quick to recognize Earle's talent. In 2006 he won the solo category of the Kansas City Blues Challenge and was a finalist in the International Blues Competition in Memphis. Most recently, he was chosen as a New Folk finalist at the renowned Kerrville Folk Festival in 2007. realeditorbest profile toolsrealeditorbest profile tools
