"Groove-oriented and uplifting - top class musicianship and great songwriting - I'm a fan!!"
-Matt Malley of the Counting Crows
"In my humble musical opinion Ron Noyes is the best thing to happen to audible sound frequency since the invention of the bell!!! Buy his record or I will find you and your @#*&#! family!!! "
-John Popper of Blues Traveler
“You don't have to listen to too much of Something Else to understand why the Ron Noyes Band garnered a Best New Artist Nomination from Jam magazine. Few albums will have come to the table so complete and downright mature this early in a band's career.
“Something Else” offers a blend of funky soul/soft rock that moves along at an easy pace with just a hint of swagger and in Ron Noyes they have a singer who was born for romance, “Chainsmoke” is the kind of lush sensuous ballad that will have late-night radio producers salivating and quickly altering their playlists.
It is quite clear that the band has worked long and hard to reach this point. You don't get this good or this tight by accident, or overnight. There is something chilling about a man opening up his soul to public gaze and on One Way Ride Ron Noyes will freeze the blood in your veins. No theatre no histrionics, to listen to a simple and honest expression of feeling is still a magical moment.
