Noah Phillips' music and guitar playing is the result of listening to and emulating the works of many innovative guitar players, composers, and and rock bands of the 21st century. Born in 1976 to parents in their early twenties living in Santa Monica, Phillips was exposed to everything from disco to reggae at a very early age. Phillips' early and lifelong influences include Bob Marley, Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmore, and Jimi Hendrix. While living in a boarding school on the Big Island of Hawaii Phillips began to explore music of the North American African Diaspora including the early works of Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Charles Mingus, Wes Montgomery, Taj Mahal, and John Lee Hooker.
