Vintage Noise

Michael Carter (Vocals) and Christopher Main (Guitar) are "Vintage Noise", a jazz and bossa nova duo often backed by a dynamic ensemble of talented musicians from the San Francisco Bay Area.

A rarity among bands in the Bay Area, Vintage Noise is colorfully-inspired by the timeless jazz and bossa nova standards of the 1920s to 1960s. Vintage Noise sets the ideal tone and has quickly become a local favorite of the Bay Area and beyond. The talented duo features the insightful and soulful style of jazz guitarist Christopher Main, who offers melodic leads and effortlessly supports the rich vocals of crooner Michael Carter. Their performance provides an unforgettable and engaging experience. Vintage Noise has played at prestigious venues including Castlewood Country Club (Pleasanton), Martinelli Winery Event Center (Livermore), Rodney Strong Vineyards (Healdsburg), Sam's Chowder House (Half Moon Bay), the Silicon Valley Sound Experience Music Festival (San Jose), and Yoshi's San Francisco (San Francisco).
