The L.A. stadium concert marked Kahan’s biggest headlining performance to date.
On August 15, Noah Kahan treated his sold-out crowd at Rose Bowl Stadium to a surprise performance by fellow singer-songwriter Chappell Roan. This marked Kahan's largest headlining show thus far, drawing over 56,000 fans to the venue. During his 27-song set, Kahan expressed his gratitude to the Los Angeles audience and hinted at Roan's appearance.
Upon picking up a payphone onstage, the singer proclaimed, "I'm grate as f—k to be here with y’all." Roan responded to Kahan's call on the phone and they later performed "California" together. This track resonated with the audience, as it documents Roan's journey from Missouri to Los Angeles in pursuit of her music career. Kahan praised Roan, stating, "Noah always stands up for me, seriously.
He's a good person, for real." The duet was followed by songs from Kahan's albums, Stick Season and The Great Divide, before he concluded his set on August 17 during a stop in San Diego.
