With intricate lyrics, soulful vocals and genre spanning production courtesy of the LA-based Nigerian producer UJAH, they have maintained a strong local following on their journey to mainstream success. As a black, non-binary creative, BLCKNOISE has made it their life’s work to elevate the culture of live music by creating platforms for artistic expression and using their art as a catalyst for social change. 

CATAPULT: a live art and music series was their most recent creation and was halted by the pandemic but will be making its return as a virtual concert platform for creatives. 

BLCKNOISE has performed all over Southern CA, notably gracing the main stage at Music Tastes Good in 2018 and winning the Long Beach talent competition Buskerfest with their electrifying stage performance in 2019. They also hosted live music at the W hotel in Hollywood every Friday in 2019 with their intimate concert series “The Remedy''. They are currently putting the finishing touches on their  EP and just released a single “The Fall '' that is now streaming on all major platforms!
