Noah Kahan has announced his new album The Great Divide.

The 29-year-old singer is to release his fourth studio record – the follow-up to his 2022 commercial breakthrough Stick Season – on April 24, with the first single dropping on Friday (30.01.26).

Noah wrote on Instagram of the album’s themes: “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, spiralling dreams that have materialised in front of me.”

The folk-pop singer continued: “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.”

Stick Season’s titular track proved to be a huge hit for Noah – who revealed last year that he doesn’t mind his music being called a “snooze fest”.

He explained on social media that he takes it as a “compliment” when people call his work boring as he would enjoy a “fun and restful” time if there were an actual “snoozing festival”.

Kahan wrote on his Instagram Story: “When people call my music a snooze fest I take it as a compliment because to me going to an actual snoozing festival sounds fun and restful.”

The Grammy-nominated star also quipped about the idea of his fans getting some shut-eye during his gigs and “being refreshed and ready to go” once he has played his last song.

He added: “Everyone there just sleeping side by side refreshed and ready to go after my two hours are up.”
