Noah Kahan played his biggest show to date to 65,000 people in Hyde Park, with Lewis Capaldi, Gracie Abrams and Gigi Perez as guests.
Noah Kahan, the American folk-pop songwriter behind Stick Season, played his biggest show to date at BST Hyde Park on Friday 4 July 2025. The night opened the festival’s second weekend.
Kahan grew up on a tree farm in Strafford, Vermont. His father taught him guitar and his mother, who wrote parenting guides, taught him to write, and he was writing songs by the age of eight.
His single “Hurt Somebody” went gold in the United States and preceded his debut album, Busyhead, in 2019. Stick Season, his third album, came in 2022 and earned him a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist.
The show sold out, and 65,000 people were there. Kahan recalled that his first London show had drawn 77 people, and he closed with “Stick Season”.
Lewis Capaldi joined him as a guest, as did Gracie Abrams and Gigi Perez, who had both played their own sets earlier in the day.
