Naftali Noah Lehrman
Naftali Noah Lehrman is a Riverdale-based songwriter, musician & environmental expert. He believes the key to improving humanity's relationship to the environment lies in reflecting the healing modes and metaphors of Judaism and music – through addressing and embracing the seeming opposition of civilizations and nature in order to envision and achieve their fundamental unity. Noah's love songs, at once evocative and hook-filled, work to reconcile the paradox of unity and duality of self and other through intelligent, incisive lyrics wrapped in catchy, danceable tunes with a sense of romance and wry humor.

His melodic approach to rhythm in his acoustic and electronic drum set and percussion work focuses on both ecstatic improvisation and interpretation of the cannon in the American and world dance, folk, funk, rock, and sacred music traditions using sound and silence, the left hand and the right hand to create meaning.


Noah lectures on the relationship between the metaphysics of music and spiritual communities from the Torah and the Beit HaMikdash to the Gemara and modern times, for both Jewish and general audiences and institutions including Isabella Friedman/Hazon, Radio Free Nachlaot, & Because Jewish. Noah has appeared internationally at festivals from The Big Up, WV's Pink Moon, LA Art Walk, Cos mic Alignment and NY Harvest Fest to the Jerusalem Hoot in The Park, the Tsfat International Klezmer Festival, Skek in Amster dam, Gladstone in Toronto, and beyond.He regularly performs live as a solo artist and in Gratefully Yours, Skeleton Keys, Terrapin Chaimber Ensemble, and Narkatta, among other acts, and with global music legends from the late Babtunde Olatunji to Niles Rogers.Noah's music and Torah have been featured in press ranging from Relix to The Economist magazines. Noah is currently recording his debut solo album produced by GrammyⓇ -winner C. Lanzbom (Pete Seeger, Deadgrass, Soulfarm) and due out later this year.

Noah was a musician-in-residence at Art Kibbutz's first residency program at Eden Village. Later that year his family graciously hosted a party benefitting Art Kibbutz. In 2016 he performed at our Creative Catalyst Symposium at the Manny Cantor Center. Noah returned in 2017 to present his songs/poetry at the New York Poetry Festival - WonderWoman project curated by Shira Dicker. In 2018 Noah participated at the Seeing the Voices benefit party at the JCC in Harlem.
