Discography
In early 2019, he released a free album download of 3 acoustic tracks. Towards the end of 2020 and the beginning of 2021, 2 songs and one instrumental were released as singles in advance of his first studio album titled “Here We Sit” which was independently released 20 February 2021 on all streaming platforms and on CD. A 10-track album of songs and instrumentals, which took the best part of 2 years to complete. A collection of tracks that are acoustic / rock / blues influenced and written across many years of a stop / start, love / hate relationship with music. All songs, lyrics, instruments, programming, mixing and mastering is by Noel.
“It’s absolutely the ray of hope we needed in what has proven to be a difficult year so far.”
Late 2021 saw Noel commence work on his second album “The Kid In Me”. The first single “Can’t Get You Out of My Head” was released in September 2023. And in October 2023 the second single and title track from the album “The Kid In Me” was released on all streaming platforms. The album was released in November that year on all streaming platforms and on CD. “The Kid In Me” is another 10 track album of songs and instrumentals recorded in Noels studio in Southampton, England. Again the sound is Acoustic / rock / blues, but this time with more of a emphasis on his rock influences. This album has allowed Noel to expand on his studio production and mastering techniques. Again, all songs, lyrics, instruments, programming, mixing and mastering is by Noel.
And so to today. “Catch The Breeze single” was released 20/03/2026 on all streaming platforms. It is a reflective, uplifting acoustic‑rock song about letting go and stepping into a more hopeful version of yourself. At its heart, it’s a song about release, shedding doubt, embracing possibility, and trusting that life has a way of carrying you somewhere better if you’re brave enough to take a chance and go with it. The track captures the moment when you stop fighting the wind and start moving with it.
This is the first release from the forthcoming album “From Then To Here” – the third album release from Noel. There will be one more single release before the album is committed to all streaming services. The CD is now available for pre-order from the store.
Noel is also working alongside Voice FM in Southampton creating jingles for advertising on the station.
