It’s place and perspective that drive 24-year-old musician Noah Rinker’s sound. It propels his lyricism and informs his entire point of view. Growing up in the mountains of California, he found song wherever he could. He picked up the guitar at 14, learning to play it like a lap steel because he assumed the fretboard might work the same way a keyboard did. At 16, he wrote his first song. But it was “leaving for sessions with other collaborators that made me realize that home was the thing that made me who I was all along.”
You see that connection between song and soul in his videos: Noah, a guitar, and the place he grew up. Sometimes you’ll see the mountains sprawled out behind him as he plays; other times, he’s cloaked in darkness, only lit by a crackling campfire. There are covers mixed in with originals; snippets of works-in-progress tossed in, paired with months-in-the-making singles he’s on the cusp of releasing. The music is real, it’s raw, and it’s Noah Rinker distilled and at his truest essence. Songs like “Save My Soul”, “Wherever I Go” and his latest “Bleeding Heart” introduce the world to a storyteller doing what he does best-digging deep, baring his soul, and laying it out on the page for just a few minutes of honest connection.
Noah partnered with Warner Records in April of 2024, releasing 3 EPs and a live record while touring relentlessly across the US with the likes of Wyatt Flores, Sam Barber, Ty Meyers, and a slew of others. His song “Save My Soul” is rapidly approaching 100 million streams across all platforms, the record continues to go viral over and over again on TikTok and IG, with over 1.5 million UGC uses and counting.
So far in 2026, Noah has been named one of Spotify's Artists To Watch, embarked on his first fully sold out US and UK headline tours, delivered debut performances at massive festivals like Stagecoach and Bourbon and Beyond, and has written and recorded his debut album. He’ll cap things off this year with his The Boys of Fall headline dates in the US as well as a string of direct support shows with Cameron Whitcomb. He’ll kick of 2027 with a huge support run with Dylan Gossett in Europe, which leads directly into the release of his debut record and album tours for both the US and Europe.
