Noah Peterson "Live at Marylhurst Drive"
Noah Peterson and his bands play jazz, in prides large and small his swinging troupe of hep cats play like lions on the prowl; bold and fiery one passage, sweet and tender the next. The excitement created when he plays is electric, it passes through the audience and feeds the excitement of the performance; completing the circuit.  The sublime moment; where fact, fiction and fancy fall away. Celebration of the now; this is Jazz, real jazz, good jazz.

From stage engagements at the watering holes of jazz aficionados to his ever growing recorded catalog broadcast 'round the globe.  His performances are the stuff of legend.  Fans include lovers of music from all of Noah's many and varied performances: Jazz, Blues, Gospel, Zydeco, Reggae, Folk, Rock, Funk, avant-garde, African, Latin...the list goes on and on.

Songs that touch and delight his audiences come dancing from his horn. Romantic indigo moods and funky festivals of sound; every performance come alive with an inner fire that audiences never forget.

Noah Peterson offers a clear, true voice and a new vision.  Turning pop tunes into jazz classics; polishing jazz standards into bright new gems. Ensuring that this spiritual medium of music is uplifting and timeless is Noah's gift to the world.

Noah's bands offer the perfect balance to his horn; they are light to Noah's shadow as they groove to the mystic depths of his untamed saxophone. Like the best high wire act these gentlemen perform without a net.  There is no place they fear to tread.

At home in any situation, Noah's music brings the best out of any event.  As performance and musician's advocate, Noah welcomes opportunities to perform and record.

The Acid Jazz Experience: Too Much To Tell
The Acid Jazz Experience is a reclusive and secretive mob, rarley appearing in public.  Made up of funky jazz hit-men, verbal-assassin MC's and wicked DJ's, The Acid Jazz Experience is an underground collective of the groove-mafia.
Select performances are always on the cutting edge: DJ's slicing and dicing records, horns cutting fat lines, a wall of groove 10 feet thick and MC's spitting lyrics between screaming solos of all instruments. 
This ain't your momma's band and the unfunky risk serious injury if exposed to
The Acid Jazz Experience.
