Noah Kahan revealed that he fears he’s already peaked in life during a candid conversation from his documentary “Out of Body,” which premieres on Netflix April 13.
Kahan, the singer songwriter who skyrocketed to fame with the 2022 album “Stick Season,” opened up about his complicated feelings surrounding his hometown, his success and his mental health in a new clip from the documentary, which aired exclusively on TODAY April 10.
“When I was in Hanover-Stratford, I felt suffocated by it,” Kahan said. “And then when I left, I yearned for like, its simplicity.”
“You can’t just escape who you are because you moved to a different place,” he added.
Speaking with his brother while looking at the New York City skyline, Kahan was asked if he worries that he’s peaked or will peak.
“Uh yeah, yes I do,” he answered. “All the time. That’s all I think about, really.”
“You know, tomorrow if I don’t play a great show at MSG like, what could that mean? That could mean that people (start) losing interest, and the fans start to think it’s boring and stale, and the label loses faith in me.”
He then summarized advice he’s received from a therapist: “Failure is part of it, and you need to prepare yourself for that, because it’ll let you accept the moment you’re in.”
“I just have never really been able to do that,” he added.
Kahan debuted on the music season with the 2019 album “Busyhead.” He went on to release an EP “Cape Elizabeth” in 2020 followed by “I Was / I Am” in 2021. But it was “Stick Season,” which features hits like “Northern Attitude,” “Homesick” and “Dial Drunk,” that made him a household name.
Kahan is set to release his first follow-up to that album, “The Great Divide,” on April 24, and he’s set to go back out on tour in June.
The upcoming Netflix doc will feature footage from a year and a half in Kahan’s life, he revealed in an Instagram post.
“It was weird, difficult, and genuinely beautiful to experience,” he wrote. “This documentary captures so much more than I ever thought the world would see about myself, my creative journey and my family. I am nervous about it because it’s personal and some things I touch on are painful to think about and be reminded of. I remember though that anything scary or hard is usually worth sharing with the world.”
