With a band of some of the planet’s best players, Noah Zacharin applies his acknowledged lyrical and guitar mastery to present a record of “Americana”—an effortless amalgam of jazz, blues, country, and folk, played primarily on acoustic instruments. Ten songs and one instrumental piece (the latter featured in #30 of Fingerstyle Guitar Journal) take the listener on a journey that is often humorous, often heart-rending, always worth the listen.

“Zacharin’s spry steel-string on “Ten Tons of Road” Is a wondrous surprise.” (Vintage Guitar Feb 2024)

Recent reviews: Americana Highways and Making a Scene.

"With his new release "Points of Light" Canadian singer-songwriter Noah Zacharin proves himself, once again, to be a brilliant lyricist, with eleven new songs exploring, life, love, and the meaning of it all. I find listening to Noah to be a cerebral musical experience, a joy to the ears and to the mind. The album's excellent production quality and many fine musical guests further enhance this superb album."
