<p><span data-contrast="auto">Noah Kahan comes all the way from Strafford, Vermont, and began his musical journey with the release of his debut EP, ‘</span><i><span data-contrast="auto"><a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/1TMA2dKLdsJZ8u1iikE6Ow?si=gL3x-jQUT2m8JT4igvEPXg" target="_blank">Hurt Somebody</a>’</span></i><span data-contrast="auto">, in 2018. The title track, especially the duet version featuring Julia Michaels, achieved significant international success, charting globally and earning Gold status in the United States. This song blends folk-pop elements with raw and heartfelt lyrics, showcasing Kahan&#8217;s emotive vocal delivery and knack for creating emotional storytelling through lyrics.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">In 2019, Kahan released his debut album, ‘</span><i><span data-contrast="auto"><a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/3DNQrMjvVGiueVrj1qquJd?si=Ph4WBgInTH23oLurzof3gw" target="_blank">Busyhead</a>’</span></i><span data-contrast="auto">, which included tracks like </span><span data-contrast="auto">‘False Confidence’ and ‘Save Me’</span><span data-contrast="auto">. This album continued to highlight his folk-pop style, characterised by introspective songwriting and melodic arrangements. His third album, ‘</span><i><span data-contrast="auto"><a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/0b693AisoJYg4Ilj10LkYG?si=Cqizba4TTBqtapei_5F6Jg" target="_blank">I Was / I Am</a>’</span></i><span data-contrast="auto">, followed in 2021, featuring songs such as </span><span data-contrast="auto">‘Godlight’ and ‘Someone Like You’</span><span data-contrast="auto">, the latter a collaboration with Joy Oladokun who added beautiful countryesque vocals. </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}"> </span></p>
<p><iframe style="border-radius: 12px;" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/track/0hiHNxqKGf3GZgVTIOAiiK?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="352" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">However, 2023 marked a significant breakthrough for Kahan with the release of his single ‘</span><i><span data-contrast="auto">Stick Season’</span></i><span data-contrast="auto">. Inspired by the transitional period in Vermont between autumn and winter, the song resonated with a wide audience, capturing the feeling of change and uncertainty especially with the lyrics, </span><span data-contrast="auto">“I hope this pain&#8217;s just </span><span data-contrast="auto">passin&#8217; through</span><br />
<span data-contrast="auto">But I doubt it”</span><span data-contrast="auto">. </span><i><span data-contrast="auto">Stick Season</span></i><span data-contrast="auto"> features acoustic-driven instrumentation, with a blend of folk and indie influences, and showcases Kahan&#8217;s vivid lyrical imagery. The track achieved considerable success, flooding all over social media and eventually reached the UK Top 10 in October 2023 and climbing to Number 1 on the <a href="https://www.officialcharts.com/songs/noah-kahan-stick-season/" target="_blank">Official Singles Chart</a> in January 2024 marking a significant breakthrough for Kahan in the UK music scene. </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">Looking ahead, Kahan has an eventful year planned for 2025. In addition to the Cardiff performance, he is set to headline London’s Hyde Park on July 4, where he will be joined by singer-songwriter Gracie Abrams. Just days before, he will also take the stage in Dublin on July 1 for a massive show at Marlay Park. These performances further cement his growing popularity and status as a festival headliner. With a devoted fanbase and a signature sound that blends folk, pop, and indie influences, Kahan has established himself as one of the most compelling singer-songwriters of his generation.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}"> </span></p>
