I’ve been listening to Noah Kahan since 2017 and if you do one thing today… check out the rest of his music. He’s one of the most talented and honest singer song writers of our time. So proud of you Noah!

[@michaeld.williamsiii9026]

First time hearing of him and seeing this interview, I’ll certainly check out his music surely!!🙂

[@savannahcarlson1147]

Same I've been so happy to watch him grow 😭 it's so amazing to see I love literally every song

[@juliepowers2414]

It is not just this generation, there are so many older people who also love him and his music.

[@DaleBoettcher-gn8wd]

I've had him on my iPod since 2011 (his brother gave us one recording when we were in undergrad) and seeing him explode since then has been so cool to see

[@ollieols6453]

noah kahan's STICK SEASON is the best album i've listened to in such a long time.

[@lifeatbuttheight]

I had Northern Attitude playing while bringing home my new puppy and still grieving my old dog. I kept looking at him in the passenger seat and just begging him to forgive me because I didn't, still don't, feel like I deserve a friend like him who loves my "northern attitude" so unconditionally.

[@autumnstarrs]

I'm half a century old and he's in my regular rotation and sometimes on repeat depending on my mood. Good music appeals to a generation. Great music is ageless.

[@sunnyboi2461]

I've been listening too Noah Kahan since "Young Blood" in 2017 and I'm so glad he's getting the attention he deserves :3 💚

[@livyrose6603]

Love how he represents VT 😊 once a Vermonter always a Vermonter

[@kaleighrae4525]

THIS MAN. OMG on repeat forever

[@quantumpuddles7591]

I’ve listened to the album almost 20 times now and I still get chills when I listen to “Halloween” and “The view between villages” such an incredible album

[@facelessmiasma4664]

I found Noah like 6 months before quarantine and fell in love with his music. One of my favorite songs comes from cape Elizabeth, and is 1 of the only songs I’ve ever cried over.

[@leoansa536]

Which one?

[@facelessmiasma4664]

@@leoansa536 Anyway. Such a good song

[@fiddlesticks6146]

I laugh every time I hear the lyric “and I can stay grateful for the sun, though it’s getting in my eyes” hahaha lovve it

[@brendanscribner9941]

Someday I gotta give this man a hug. From days of hearing you effortlessly croon Green Day's "Time of your life," writing lyrics on every scrap of paper you could find...to a model of a beautiful musician/writer/human. Thank you for bringing true heart and passion to us all. Vermont and New Hampshire are pretty proud to always be your home. Keep creating Noah, we are listening.

[@jackee1054]

I am a 68 year old grandmother who just discovered this guy.....only about 2 weeks ago I was driving home and heard Stick Season. I literally pulled over and made a note in my phone to look him up and now I'm hooked. Love you Noah from Boston. ❤

[@mykki.d]

I've been listening to all of his albums on REPEAT for months. He has an amazing discography, seriously no skipped songs. I'm so happy he's getting the recognition he's worked so hard for. CONGRATS NOAH!!

[@laurad324]

So proud of my fellow Vermonter? He embodies Vermont!

[@katekenn156]

My Spotify Wrapped for 2022 was 90% Noah... I've loved his music from the beginning, have seen him perform 3 times, and I'm so excited to see him again this summer. He's incredibly talented, and I'm so happy for him to be experiencing this huge success!

[@forgotten1s]

Stick season was really beautiful

[@johnlordagravante5510]

Even though I'm a Filipino, I'm a real fan of Noah's songs! His songs are really astounding felt like I'm having an eargasm!

[@Kris-cl5nl]

He’s amazing! So glad this type of music is becoming more popular 😊

[@edgargonzalez5776]

Since 2017 knowing him and wow hes doing it

[@taylorh4480]

one of my favorite records of the last 10 years or so. his writing is brilliant, his voice is fantastic, the record sonically is mixed and mastered perfectly. A+++

[@claire8873]

I feel a connection to his music like no other--I'm from Vermont, but it's not only that. And this is coming from a die-hard Swiftie lol

[@amyperry1440]

YES!!! Also a diehard Swiftie, but Noah hits me the same way that her music does, it's the same level of storytelling, lyricism, raw emotion and devastation of my soul, in the best way possible.🫶💜

[@slideshowgurl]

Such a huge fan of Noah’s music. We actually grew up in the same hometown (Funny enough, I graduated HS with his older brother and sister) but began listening a few years back when my sister mentioned his music. Something about his writing just touched something in me. I love the New England imagery and the heartfelt lyrics. So cool to see where is career is going and he deserved all the praise he’s getting! I can’t wait to see him in concert in Maine in a couple days!

[@scottland906]

love this guys music -- glad he's finally getting the recognition he deserves.

[@nayelisantiago3979]

Thank u for written "Hurt somebody" or "Mine", thanks thanks. Those songs meaning a lot to me

I think for someone to think about home and appreciate everything, your village, your roots etc you need to leave for a moment, that's when you truly understand everything, cheers

[@ddixon845]

Absolutely love @noahkahanmusic and can’t wait to see him next week at Lollapalooza!

[@katelynbrown98]

*No* *way* !! Congratulations, Noah!!! 🥰 I love his older songs, Maine & Please.

[@nancylothian550]

What an awesome story about a tried and true Vermonter! Thank you Jan and crew at CBS mornings for opening up the conversation about his talented singer/song writer. As a Vermonter, I am SO PROUD of you Noah and absolutely LOVE your new Stick Season song. I just heard it on "The Point" out of Montpelier. Looking forward to seeing you while in the Burlington area later this month. I also love your apparel and will purchase a really sweet T and Cap, Keep up the great work. You make all Vermonters proud as does Grace Potter.

[@Travelpage193]

So happy to see Noah getting the attention he deserves!

[@garrettrenner1508]

Just accidentally came across him and his song “Fine” two days ago, and now my kids and I are hooked on his music!

[@genesishill4495]

Found him back in early 2019 while on honeymoon with my wife, he’s my favorite artist ❤ and a true poet

[@WesternVengance]

My grandpa said "It seems like John Lennon and Bob Dylan merged into one person." when I showed him this.

[@-Teague-]

Pretty much but he's sweeter than either of them

[@hillmadaris]

Lennon & Dylan -- a perfect blend is Noah!

[@alelst93]

Noah Kahan ❤

[@hannahahle]

I definitely resonate with being inspired to write most authentically when being at home. Doesn’t matter where else I travel in the world my house in my hometown is where I flow best. It nice to see there are some non pretentious people in the music industry

Amazing! I found Noah last year and I can't wait for him to get the recognition he deserves and hopefully start touring across the pond. Europe is waiting for you, Noah!

If folks like that one, y’all should really hear his other songs.

[@mikehunt3538]

feel soooo late to all this...2017 lol

[@terrymcdonnell4422]

If you want honest, listen to Bat McGrath's From the Blue Eagle. RIP. Another singer - storyteller who sang about all of life's difficulties and trying to heat. But... Noah is fantastic.

[@TomBuskey]

You'll notice the sky isn't blue, it's overcast. I grew up in the next town over and blue sky was pretty rare. The Connecticut river valley is one of the foggier areas in the country. The local airport had one of the 1st Instrument Landing Systems in the US.

👍🏻

[@mmmodafoca]

we bash a lot of the what is pop music these days, but honestly there is so much good music out there, i'm greatfull we live in a time where if you don't like one thing go and search for your gem. May i recommend something to someone reading this comment. Japanese funk jazz city pop.. Mr. Tatsuro Yamashita.

[@HunterHunter93]

This lady looked angry at Kahan

[@Jake-D-Solyst]

I loved Stick Season but man this segment was filled with artist tropes. Suggesting that Noah's music resonates because it's "real" and social media is "fake." That's some lame music journalism.

[@charnegraaff6249]

Who is the producer of Noah's new album?

[@IlluminatingNight]

Gabe Simon helped co-write some of the songs on the album. He’s primarily a producer, so I’m guessing he produced the album.

[@Vontevangough]

The title made me think this would be a rapper but nevertheless great song😃

[@dalewikfors9194]

This song is a serious documentary of the suicide of my son Nick and how my middle daughter found him on Christmas eve dead in his car with a self infected gunshot. The rain had just stopped and the sunset was shining through. This song, stick season will always be a memory burn.

[@ShamelessHelicopterParent]

I am so so so sorry for your loss.

So happy to see him continue to get the recognition he deserves I've been a fan of his for a few years now and I live in a small town in Scotland, UK and I've saw his music and the ways it's changed but still pretty much 'Noah' 😍 Keep going noah your success is only gonna get bigger and better with your talent ❤️❤️
