It was very cool to see Noel Gourdin in both USA Today and on Boston.com today.
It’s even greater that The River has hit the second spot on Billboard’s R&B Charts — probably soaring to Number 1 soon as I write this, and #1 on other charts soon, too.
Since Noel Gourdin’s CD “After My Time” has dropped, I’m sure Noel Gourdin will be getting plenty more press, and we’ll learn lots more about the fabulous singer!
Found this article on EurWeb.com about Noel Gourdin and a video interview where sings a bit of The River and talks about getting the call:
Noel Gourdin will visit the 2008 Essence Music Festival, so says this new press release.
Essence doesn’t have any info as of this writing about Noel Gourdin’s visit to their 2008 Essence Music Festival, but I’m sure they’ll update eventually.
Noel Gourdin just posted on his MySpace blog a message to check out this new video for The River…
Nice.
And there’s a river in it.
Noel Gourdin can really, really sing.
I mean blow straight from his soul. Unlike some studio singer’s whose voices are morphed or drowned out by lots of sampling and such, Noel Gourdin doesn’t need any of that!
You can tell from that opening of Noel singing unaccompanied at the beginning of The River music video.
Caught this Style Weekly piece about Noel Gourdin, thanks to my Google Alert.
I didn’t know Noel Gourdin kept his cell phone number on his MySpace page!
Oh my…
I won’t call him, though.
I suspect Noel will one day take that mug off, when he hits Oprah status. Or change his cell phone number every month, like I hear LeBron James does. Don’t know if that’s really true…
But I’m glad for him and learning more about him all the time. Like the fact that Noel’s CD — cleverly called “After My Time” — will finally drop July 22, 2008.
It’s interesting that Noel Gourdin said his grandpeeps were baptized in the river.
I wonder was he?
