Noah Gittell
Noah Gittell arrived in Cleveland in early 2025 and quickly carved out a place in the Forest City’s music scene. A singer-songwriter who cut his teeth in New York clubs like The Bitter End and Maxwell’s, he’s since become a familiar face at Spotlight Cleveland, Dunlap’s Corner Bar, Headquarters, Smedley’s Bar & Grille, and other local favorites. In addition to his original work, he’s known for his crowd-pleasing acoustic Green Day covers and collaborations with Cleveland mainstays.
Blending emotional clarity with sharp lyricism, Noah writes songs shaped by the places and people that move him. Influenced by Tom Petty, Ray LaMontagne, and Paul McCartney, he shifts easily between wry storytelling and heartfelt confession. His catalog ranges from cheeky (“What’ll I Do When the Drugs Don’t Work”) to romantic (“I’ll Be Your Tree”) to darkly witty (“Happy Death Day”). He’s also earned a reputation for unexpected acoustic covers, from Ace of Base’s “The Sign” to a wild and raucous “Rosalita (Come Out Tonight).”
Over the last twelve months, Noah has released three albums of original music—Mezzanine, River Rain, and Woodbury—as well as Gittell Plays Green Day, a live album of Green Day covers. With more than five hours of material at the ready, he tailors each set to the room, offering a seamless and engaging mix of originals, reinterpretations, and his signature Green Day show.
