Grammy-nominated American singer-songwriter Noah Kahan is heading back to Australia in 2026, bringing his introspective brand of folk-pop to fans across the country. The artist behind streaming hits "Stick Season" and "Northern Attitude" will perform two shows each in Melbourne and Sydney during September and October next year.
Kahan took to social media to announce the news, characterising the visit as an opportunity to share "great sadness and reflection" with Australian audiences as part of The Great Divide world tour. The tour coincides with the upcoming release of his fourth studio album, also titled 'The Great Divide', arriving on 24 April.
The forthcoming record marks a significant creative collaboration, with production helmed by Aaron Dessner from acclaimed band The National, alongside Gabe Simon of Kopecky. Dessner's production credits span work with Taylor Swift and Bon Iver, while Simon has collaborated with major artists including Dua Lipa and Lana Del Rey.

Kahan has described the album as emerging "from a long silence," suggesting a deeply personal project that explores themes of division and separation across relationships and family connections. His cryptic social media post hints at the record's introspective nature and thematic scope.
Supporting Kahan throughout the Australian dates will be Michael Marcagi, an alternative Americana singer-songwriter gaining recognition for tracks including "Scared To Start" and "The Other Side". Marcagi recently released his debut album 'Under The Streetlights', establishing himself as an emerging talent within the folk and Americana sphere.
Fans eager to secure tickets for the Australian leg of The Great Divide tour should keep an eye on ticketing platforms, with further details expected to be announced as the tour dates approach. Pre-orders for 'The Great Divide' are now available ahead of its April release.
