Before his profile as a musician exploded, actor Noah Reid thought of his songs as "a little closet that I could put my thoughts and feelings into." But in early 2018, that door came off its hinges. As his character Patrick Brewer, on the eventual Emmy-winning Canadian TV comedy Schitt's Creek, Noah performed a remarkably grounded and unfeigned acoustic cover of "The Best," usually known as a reach-for-the-rafters power ballad, made popular in the late 80's by the incomparable Tina Turner. TV Guide went as far as to say that Noah's contribution created "the most romantic scene on television," and the mania around Noah's take on the tune only grew larger once Schitt's Creek came to Netflix. On the cusp an upcoming tour, he checks in this week to discuss the horror story of his first vinyl pressing, the surreal "cosmic needle drops" of his Amazon Prime series Outer Range and the many ways he treasures music's imperfections. Tour dates, merch, social media and more are available at http://noahreid.com.
