Noah Kibreab, band leader of Noah and the Arkiteks is a San Jose-based, alternative-flavored soul ensemble. They will take you down memory lane of great soul vocalists Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, Sam Cooke, Ray Charles, Al Green, and then switch it up and funk things up with nods to Stevie Wonder and Bob Marley. Formed in 2015 the Alternative Soul artist throws in hints of a classic sound that pulls from American Black Roots music.
