Hello Dear People!

I hope you all are doing really well! I've been working hard and traveling a lot. Now I'm taking some time off to spend with loved ones. This seems to be harder and harder to do, with all of our busyness, so I'm very happy to have the opportunity now. I hope you have some time as well with those you love.

Thank you for the amazing reception you've all given to Mantra Brothers 'Invoke' - the new album with my brother, Jeremy. It's been so good to feel the support and love for the work we've done. Your support makes the ship sail. You can hear and buy Invoke at mantrabrothers.com

I have lot of good news to report and share with you! I'm very excited that Finding Gabriel by Brad Mehldau has been nominated for a Grammy Award. I play cello on the album, along with Lois Martin on viola and Sara Caswell on violin. It's a very beautiful piece of music with Brad's incredible compositions, string and vocal writing, and piano performances. I highly recommend giving his music a deep listen- its available everywhere.

I'm also excited to announce that a new album for cello and piano, along with tabla and bass is nearing completion. I partnered with my amazing pianist and friend, Wells Hanley, and brought Arjun Bruggeman and Mark Egan along, both incredible musicians. We're preparing a release for 'Love Rules' in early 2020, so stay tuned....

Also, I'm playing some live shows this holiday season, mostly on the road. I'll be playing with Krishna Das at Maui Arts and Cultural Center on December 2nd and at Menla Retreat in Upstate NY Dec 27-31. Who knows? Maybe we'll see each other there.

 

With Love and Gratitude,

 

Noah
