Finding Noah @ BMC

An important part of what we do at YBSA is to find the lesser known bands, see if they are any good and promote them towards their impending stardom. We are for anyone who gives a band a stage, and in this case it was the youth group at Bryanston Methodist Church who hosted Christian band Finding Noah.
I had heard only good things about this band, and being a sucker for any gig, I went along. There were plenty teenagers running around, being emo, and doing what all teenagers do, but all had a common goal…to have a good time and watch the band. Not being a great fan of teenagers, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from a band playing a gig at a church aimed at them. From the first song I could see these guys (and girl) were good. Really good. And I will definitely watch them again at any opportunity.

The vocalist has a great, very powerful voice and the rest of the band are just as talented. They really held it together even though they had no monitors and had to do their own sound. The vocals were a bit loud and the drums weren’t resonating well, but I doubt many people picked this up as the bands energy and character came through stronger than any distraction.

The band has a positive message in their songs and you can see that they all truly believe in what the message is conveying. It’s quite refreshing when, in between so many negative messages flying around, there are some people standing up for something good. Keep an ear out for these guys…they have plenty talent and are going to go far.
