Noah Kahan has announced a new album, 'The Great Divide'.
The album, which arrives on April 24, will be his fourth overall and can be pre ordered via this link here.
Speaking about the album's themes, Kahan said: “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", he added.
The Stick Season singer also confirmed that the album's first single will be released on Friday (January 30).
Back in November, Noah Kahan stated that he does not mind that his music has been described as a "snooze fest".
Actually, the singer takes it "as a compliment", when people describe his music as boring, because he would enjoy a "fun and restful" time if there was actually a "snoozing festival".
"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", he said.
In fact, the singer even joked that he loves the idea of fans falling asleep during his shows as they are always "refreshed and ready to go" after he has played his final song from his set list on stage.
He said: "Everyone there just sleeping side by side refreshed and ready to go after my two hours are up". More on this story here.
Last year was a busy year for Kahan, having married his long term girlfriend, which he confirmed to People Magazine last August. More on this story here.
