Noah Kahan has announced a new album, ‘Great Divide’.
The folk-pop singer will release his fourth album, 2022’s commercial breakthrough ‘Stick Season’, on April 24 – you can pre-order and pre-save it here.
Discussing the album’s themes on Instagram, Kahan wrote: “From a long silence forms a divide, a great expanse demanding attention. I stare across it. I see old friends, my father, my mother, my siblings, my younger self, the great state of Vermont. I want to scream these feelings, to gesticulate wildly at the figures on the other side, but my voice has grown hoarse and muted after years of climbing a ladder towards the wild, spiraling dreams that have materialized in front of me.
“Instead, I wrote them down next to a piano in Nashville, next to a pond in Guilford Vermont, in a legendary studio in upstate New York, on a farm with a firetower in Only, Tennessee. The songs are the words I would say if I could. They are the fears I dance with in the moments before I drift off to sleep. The music here is my best attempt to delve deeper into the people, places, and feelings that have made me who I am. I am grateful for all of it, for all of you, for listening to them, if you choose to do so.”
Kahan also confirmed the album’s first single will be released this Friday (January 30).
Though it’s been a while since Kahan released new music, he did play some major UK shows last year. He sub-headlined the Pyramid Stage on the Sunday evening of Glastonbury, for which he brought out Laufey and played huge shows in Cardiff, Dublin and London at BST Hyde Park, the latter of which saw him bring out Lewis Capaldi, Gracie Abrams and Gigi Perez.
He has also been lined up for Bonnaroo this summer alongside The Strokes, Turnstile, Skrillex and more.
