Noah Reid

Noah Reid is a Canadian-American musician and actor whose musical identity is defined by a sophisticated blend of indie-folk and contemporary singer-songwriter sensibilities. While widely recognized for his television work, Reid's musical career is a distinct entity characterized by three studio albums: Songs from a Broken Chair (2016), Gemini (2020), and Adjustments (2022).

His sound is anchored by his versatile baritone and a proficiency in both piano and acoustic guitar, often supported by light chamber-pop arrangements including strings and upright bass. Critically, he is noted for his ability to balance theatrical emotionality with folk intimacy, a trait that has earned him comparisons to artists like Rufus Wainwright and James Taylor. His cultural footprint was significantly expanded by his acoustic cover of Tina Turner's 'Simply the Best' on Schitt's Creek, which showcased his ability to recontextualize pop anthems into vulnerable folk ballads. Reid's work typically explores themes of transition, domesticity, and romantic devotion, positioning him within a modern Canadian folk lineage alongside peers like Dan Mangan and Donovan Woods.
