Noah Kahan Announces ‘Stick Season’ Follow-Up Album ‘The Great Divide’
Noah Kahan will dig in deep on his upcoming fourth studio album, The Great Divide. The singer-songwriter announced the record, out April 24, on social media with an accompanying statement that sets the scene for what appears to have been an emotional venture into the past.
“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,” Kahan wrote on Instagram. “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.”
Kahan wrote and recorded The Great Divide across multiple locations, including “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 record marks the follow-up to his acclaimed third album Stick Season, which arrived in 2022 and earned him a Best New Artist nomination at the 2024 Grammy Awards.
“The songs are the words I would say if I could,” Kahan continued in the announcement post caption. “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.”
The first glimpse into The Great Divide will arrive on Friday, Jan. 30, when Kahan shares the title track. Fans have been anticipating the song’s official release since 2024, when he premiered it live at Fenway Park. “I hope you sеttle down, I hope you marry rich/I hope you’re scared of only ordinary shit,” he sings in the snippet teaser, captioned: “Anything great is worth the wait.”
