Calling all soul fans who’d like a little time with the “fam” before trotting off to their family: Noah and the Arkiteks are throwing their annual “Night Before Thanksgiving” show for anyone wanting to avoid politics and stuffing their faces. Playing soul favorites along with their heartwarming originals, the group, led by Noah Kibreab, a man with a sweet, husky voice and a gentle, emotional style of guitar playing, might lift spirits enough to ruin Thanksgiving and save Christmas.
