Noah Kahan – “The Great Divide”

Multi-platinum performer Noah Kahan has not-so-quietly positioned himself as one of this era’s most accomplished and authentic voices. With three albums under his belt, including the global smash Stick Season, a fourth [out Apr. 24] is almost certainly assured the same result if its title & lead track is any indicator.

“The Great Divide” is an ambitious alt-indie cut centered around themes of self-reflection, separation, and shame as the soloist’s lyrical prowess shines bright over galvanizing riff runs and a pronounced percussive bent. Lines like You know I think about you all the time | And my deep misunderstanding of your life… litter the track with earnest introspection and hit home the idea of confronting the hard truths of your past.

Speaking to the larger project itself, he shares:

The last five years have been the single most challenging, complicatedly beautiful, and life-altering of my career. I was somewhere I understood, and suddenly I was somewhere completely foreign…Writing for this album was a balancing act of trying to go back in time and move forward in the same moment.

I think it’s safe to say he and we are in for another smashing success.
