As Noah Kahan changes, he casts those experiences onto songs like light through a film projector. At the core of the music's upbeat energy and unfiltered lyrics, you'll hear who he was before and who he became--almost in real-time. The Vermont singer still pens songs straight from the heart and still cracks jokes with his signature, self-deprecating sense of humor; he's just changed in all of the right ways (and chronicled them via his songwriting). He gained that understanding through quite the journey from small town Vermont to global renown. He's racked up over two billion streams, released three full length albums (Busyhead, 2019; I Was / I Am, 2021; Stick Season, 2022) and a mid-pandemic EP (Cape Elizabeth, 2020), picked up a Platinum Certification for "Stick Season" and Gold Certification for "Hurt Somebody" feat. Julia Michaels, and performed on television shows such as Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Late Night with Seth Meyers, TODAY, and The Kelly Clarkson Show. After 5 years of critical acclaim and global touring, he sought an even purer style of writing and arrangement inspired by his New England roots, a challenge from within to convey a vivid representation of what he loves, fears, and struggles with most passionately. The result is Noah's latest critically acclaimed album Stick Season, which features his viral hit single "Stick Season." The album is Certified Gold and has sold over 500 thousand units to date. Following the album release, Noah embarked on the first two legs of his sold-out "Stick Season Tour" across North America, which continues this summer, where he's playing his biggest venues to date, including the iconic Radio City Music Hall, The Greek Theatre, and Red Rocks Amphitheatre. In June, Kahan released the extended version of 2022's celebrated album, Stick Season (We'll All Be Here Forever), which includes seven new songs and his latest single "Dial Drunk." The release became his most successful offering yet--topping the charts, amassing millions of streams, receiving a slew of critical acclaim, and cementing Noah Kahan as the biggest breakout artist of the year.

"Young Blood," the name of Vermont-born singer-songwriter Noah Kahan's gently urgent debut single, perfectly describes the effect he's had on pop since that track's release in early 2017. Kahan started writing songs at the tender age of 8, and he released "Young Blood" shortly after he turned 20. His big hooks and honest lyrics have quickly turned him into one of pop's hottest up-and-comers, with each song he releases increasing his stature among audiences and his peers.
Kahan grew up in the small town of Stratford, Vermont, and while he was there he grew to appreciate the songwriting talents of legends like Paul Simon and Cat Stevens, as well as newer acts like The Lumineers and Hozier. While he was in high school, Kahan's songwriting grabbed the attention of big-name peers like Dan Wilson (Adele, Semisonic) and Scott Harris (Shawn Mendes), and he decided to go all-in on the music business after graduating.
From there, his career took off like a rocket. He worked with producer Joel Little (Khalid, Lorde) to bring songs like the Spotify U.S. Viral Chart hit "Young Blood" to life. In 2018, he released his debut EP Hurt Somebody, which featured a duet version of the title track with fellow songwriting star Julia Michaels.
Kahan also rose through the touring ranks quickly. In 2017, he opened for similarly minded acts like Southern poet Ben Folds and Canadian alt-country group The Strumbellas. In 2018, he experienced even more success, performing on the Late Show With Stephen Colbert and touring with British troubadour George Ezra before heading out on his own headlining tour of North America and Europe in the fall.
The year 2019 is another busy one for Kahan, who hits the road as the opening act for Texas soul revivalist Leon Bridges, Australian rocker Dean Lewis, and British strummer James Bay, as he gears up to release his debut album.
