Noah-O has been a busy guy over the past year. After "I Got It" received national recognition from heavy rotation on MTV Jams, Noah has staged a local media takeover.

For the past two years Broadside has steadily been carving themselves a niche in Richmond’s music scene. As is the case with every band in those rocky early phases, it’s taken a ton of hard work and a few lineup changes, but finally the four-piece pop-punk outfit seems to be gaining some momentum--no easy feat in a town (or region, for that...
