Noah Kahan shares, “I’m so excited to be heading back home this fall to Vermont for the first Folk & Fairways benefit concert and golf tournament supporting The Busyhead Project at Spruce Peak. All proceeds are going to community-based mental health organizations.”
Since launching in 2023, Kahan and The Busyhead Project together have raised over $4.5 million dollars towards their mission of increasing awareness around the importance of mental health, reducing stigmas, and providing mental health resources through their important work within local communities—with the ultimate goal of making mental healthcare accessible for all. The Busyhead Project has helped local communities across North America and the UK by raising money through benefit concerts and events, workshops and classes, exclusive merch, and on-the-ground community work with local organizations through The Busyhead Project’s Action Village at Kahan’s headline tours and shows. Not to mention, Kahan and The Busyhead Project partnered with Backline to provide access to mental healthcare for his touring band and crew, including access to a trusted network of mental health and wellness providers, wellness days throughout tour, and a Mental Health Fund to cover care—challenging and changing the standard for the music and touring industries.
ABOUT NOAH KAHAN:
2x GRAMMY® nominated Vermont singer & songwriter Noah Kahan has exploded from his New England roots into the global mainstream. At the core of his music are vulnerable lyrics and an unfiltered yet relatable honesty, as the critically acclaimed artist pens songs straight from the heart and cracks jokes with his signature, self-deprecating sense of humor.
Throughout his career, Kahan has become globally renowned for his singular mix of Folk, Americana, and Rock, landing more than seven billion streams and a 4x Platinum Certification for his hit single “Stick Season.” His widely adored Double Platinum-Certified album Stick Season and its breakthrough single are inspired by his hometown of Strafford, Vermont and earliest musical inspirations and songwriting heroes—from Paul Simon to Yusuf Islam (Cat Stevens)—conveying a vivid representation of what he loves, fears, and struggles with most passionately.
He followed up the album’s massive global success with his sold-out “Stick Season Tour” and two extended versions of the record—Stick Season (We’ll All Be Here Forever) and Stick Season (Forever), which both surpassed sales of the original and featured new singles “Dial Drunk” and “Forever,” as well as collaborations with the likes of Post Malone, Kacey Musgraves, Brandi Carlile, Hozier, Gregory Alan Isakov, Gracie Abrams, Sam Fender, and Lizzy McAlpine. Kahan’s latest “We’ll All Be Here Forever World Tour” saw him performing in sold-out stadiums and arenas around the globe, including two sold-out nights at Boston’s iconic Fenway Park.
The shows were livestreamed to benefit his mental health initiative The Busyhead Project, which has raised over $4.5 million dollars to date to expand access to mental healthcare and fight the stigma around mental health. His live album, Live From Fenway Park, was released following the career-defining shows as the final installment of the Stick Season chapter.
