Musical Biography :

Zig Noda was born and raised in Southern California to parents of Japanese ancestry and started playing the flute at age of 12. One of the reasons chose the flute at the time is because he figured it would be the easiest instrument to carry back and forth from home to school...

"Little did I know that there was a deeper and profound reason for my attraction to this instrument which would be revealed over time" says Zig, who continued playing in school bands through middle school and participated in all-district honor bands and orchestras. "When I went to high school I quit playing music altogether because I became more interested in playing sports. But even back then, while watching and hearing the marching band play, I always felt that creating music was really special and cool."

After high school Zig picked up the flute again, and within a year he played his first professional gig with a keyboard player from England named Dave Gill. "Dave asked me to play as his sideman at a Christmas party and paid me $90 for about three hours of playing. The funny thing is I would have done it for free, but it was an honor to be paid for doing something that I really enjoy."
