NOAH GARDNER

 

Hi! I am Noah Gardner, aka “FIDDLEROCK” - a singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist from the small town of Hampden, Maine. I now live between Miami and Nashville, splitting my time between gigging and studying Music Business and Songwriting at the Frost School of Music, University of Miami. I first got into music as a five-year old because honestly, I wanted to play the fiddle like Charlie Daniels. I went on to sing and play in a bluegrass band for the next seven years. I fell in love with music and now play fiddle, guitar, trumpet, piano, mandolin, and beatbox.

I now play gigs all over the country, fiddling and singing with various artists. I am lucky enough to be a part of the A Cappella Academy family having attended the program for four years. It was a life changing experience, and it led me to work with and open for Pentatonix. When I am not in school or out of town on gigs, I live in Nashville where I love hiking, honky-tonking, and developing my signature “FIDDLEROCK” sound.

FIDDLEROCK combines the honesty of a country lyric with the energy of rock ‘n’ roll, with me sawing my fiddle like a rock guitarist shreds his guitar. FIDDLEROCK represents me as a musician and a person, including musical influences from jazz to rap to blues and revolving around the concept of conveying truth. I make music because I feel like when I get to play for people, they see me honestly as I am, naturally in my own element. I want to use FIDDLEROCK to help influence others to more freely express themselves as they are, using music as a tool that helps people connect with each other and themselves.
