Noah Kahan<\/a> has announced that his new album, The Great Divide, will arrive on April 24th. The lead single and title track, which Kahan teased in a social media post<\/a>, will precede the record this Friday, January 30th.<\/p>\n

The new record reunites Kahan with his\u00a0Stick Season producer Gabe Simon, while also bringing The National\u2019s Aaron Dessner (Taylor Swift, Gracie Abrams) into the mix.\u00a0In announcing the post on his social channels<\/a>, Kahan wrote:<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom 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.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pre-order for\u00a0The Great Divide are already live via Kahan\u2019s website<\/a>, with the vinyl edition available in \u201cAmerican Rust\u201d and \u201cHeadlights in the Dark\u201d colors. Find the cover artwork, as well as the \u201cThe Great Divide\u201d song teaser, below.<\/p>\n

The Great Divide comes four years after the indie folk star\u2019s breakout smash,\u00a0Stick Season. He also released the Live from Fenway<\/a> live LP back in 2024. Also on Kahan\u2019s docket is a headlining appearance at Bonnaroo 2026<\/a>, which follows his own Out of the Blue destination festival<\/a> from earlier this year.<\/p>\n
