New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Critically acclaimed Vermont singer and songwriter
Noah Kahan solidifies himself as the biggest breakout artist of the year with the release of Stick Season (We'll All Be Here Forever) out now via Mercury Records/ Republic Records/ Universal Music! Fans have eagerly awaited this extended version of 2022's celebrated album, which includes seven new songs and Kahan's latest single "Dial Drunk." Prior to its release today, the track had already amassed millions of views online, with fans singing its every word during live performances on the "Stick Season Tour."
Recently, Kahan was the most-talked about artist at
Boston Calling Music Festival, performing to a crowd of 40,000 fans during his Saturday evening set. His performance received critical acclaim from the likes of The
Boston Globe,
Boston Magazine, Boston.com, and many more, with Consequence hailing Noah as "New England's newest favorite son."
Not to mention, this week, he continued his "Stick Season Tour" with the first of two sold-out shows at New York's iconic
Radio City
Music Hall. Tonight, he is set to perform a sold-out show at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, MD. The "Stick Season Tour" marks Noah's biggest and most successful run to date with 300,000 tickets sold-see the full list of upcoming tour dates below, and stay tuned for more exciting announcements to come soon.
In addition, Noah recently announced his new mental health initiative, The Busyhead Project. Sharing its name with his 2019 debut album, The Busyhead Project has joined forces with a handful of national and local organizations to increase mental health awareness, amplify discussion, and democratize resources. Its first goal will be to raise "$1 million for mental health" with Kahan donating a portion of every ticket sold on the "Stick Season Tour". Impressively, nearly $340,000 has already been raised for the initiative. The Busyhead Project will direct donations and actions to benefit organizations Bring Change to Mind, Jack.org,
Oasis Center, Project Venture, Rural Behavioral Health Institute, and Upper Valley Haven. On the road, it will also spotlight local organizations who have positively impacted their individual communities at each show, making a donation and providing a space at the venue for the respective organization.
Noah Kahan has cemented himself as the artist to watch this year. Upon release last fall, Stick Season debuted at #14 on the Billboard 200 Chart, #4 on Billboard's Top Alternative Albums Chart, #5 on Billboard's Top Rock Albums Chart, and #5 on Billboard's Top Rock & Alternative Albums Chart.

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 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 critically acclaimed new album Stick Season, which features his Gold-Certified viral hit single "
Stick Season" and has become his most successful release 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'll play his biggest venues to date, including the iconic
Radio City
Music Hall, The Greek Theatre, and Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
