Noah Nine
The story of Noah Nine begins in Japan in 1994 where Sean Dillon and Richard Dolmat met as contracted street musicians at a theme park north of Tokyo. They soon discovered they had a chemistry that would serve them well in developing their lucrative musical careers. They released their original recording "When You Move" which garnered club chart topping success in Japan
and followed up with a five city tour. The pair eventually relocated to Vancouver where they built Stellar Earth Music Studios in 1997. Feeling the need to expand the duo, they convinced Sean's longtime friend Dave Danylchuk to move to Vancouver to join Noah Nine.
The group immediately went to work in their home studio, spending immeasurable hours perfecting their song writing and recording skills. Along the way, early versions of their songs got into the hands of Randy Bachman (the Guess Who, B.T.O.), who was so excited by what he heard that he instantly contacted the band. What followed was six months of correspondence between Noah Nine and Randy Bachman, during which time Randy would often play the Noah Nine material for his many contacts around the world and would share the feedback with the band.
It was roughly around this time that Noah Nine also became involved in the soundtrack industry. They were contracted to record the underscore for an independent film called "Tail Lights Fade", which featured Jake Busey, and Bond Girl Denise Richards and was released late 1999 through Cadence Entertainment.
Early in 1999, Noah Nine was fortunate to gain the attention of the late world renown producer Bruce Fairbairn. Bruce had recognized the talents of Sean and Richard after catching their duo show at Granville Island. After hearing some material, Noah Nine was invited to his Armoury Studio in Vancouver to re-mix their single "Whatever It Takes". The band worked with Fairbairn's assistant, Paul Silveira, who was instrumental in helping move the track into the realm of hit radio quality.
Noah Nine has played many shows, including headlining the infamous Railway Club in Vancouver, packing the Roxy Cabaret for their CD release party, and playing a showcase at the Purple Onion during New Music West 2000, in May, 2000.
Now with the recent release of their album "Prehistoric Astronaut", the band is sounding hotter than ever and working night and day to build the momentum in anticipation of things to come. Recent reviews of the CD have been glowing and positive.
