From selling out shows to a Grammy nomination, 2023 has been a whirlwind of a year for the career of Noah Kahan, the singer-songwriter who released the deluxe edition of his album “Stick Season (We’ll All Be Here Forever)” in 2023. Along with his popularity and fame, the amount of collaborations he has created with other artists has been on the rise.
One of his most popular collaborations is with the singer-songwriter Hozier. Kahan and Hozier first sang together at the Iron Blossom Music Festival in Richmond, Virginia, where they both were headliners. During Kahan’s set, Hozier joined him in Kahan’s song “Northern Attitude,” and during Hozier’s set, Kahan teamed up for Hozier’s “Work Song.”
The two artists released a studio version of “Northern Attitude” on Nov. 10 of this year. Kahan even made a facetious TikTok letting fans know that they are no longer allowed to listen to the original version of the song. Hozier then made a response to the video agreeing, saying that if you listen to the old one they will show up to your house and sing this version.
Noah Kahan has often said through his TikTok and through interviews that Hozier has shaped a big part of his musical journey and that Hozier is one of his heroes. That being said, this song is a big moment in his career.
Along with his collaboration with Hozier, Kahan has released songs with many other world-famous musicians. These include Post Malone, Lizzy McAlpine, Kasey Musgraves, and Gracie Abrams. It appears to fans that Kahan is partnering with every important artist of today’s music.
Although they have never done a real collaboration together, Kahan has also established a connection with the artist Olivia Rodrigo after she posted a cover of herself singing “Stick Season.” Returning the favor, Kahan posted a video of himself singing a cover of her song “Lacy.”
Noah Kahan has proven time and again that collaborations and working with other musicians are important to his art. Fans don’t know what is coming next for Kahan, but what they do know is that whatever it is, there will be other equally talented artists along with him for the adventure.
