Olivia Rodrigo and Noah Kahan are gearing up to release a special edition split single that will surely excite fans of both artists. The single will feature Rodrigo's cover of Kahan's 'Stick Season' and Kahan's cover of Rodrigo's 'Lacy,' both of which were recorded during their appearances on BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge last year.
The seven-inch colored vinyl will be available at select independent record stores as part of Record Store Day on April 20. On Side A, listeners can enjoy Rodrigo's rendition of Kahan's 'Stick Season,' the lead single from Kahan's Grammy-nominated 2022 album of the same name. On Side B, Kahan's cover of Rodrigo's 'Lacy' from her chart-topping sophomore album, 'Guts,' will be featured.
Record Store Day will also see the release of Kahan's 2021 album, 'I Was/I Am,' on blue vinyl, adding to the excitement for fans of the talented singer-songwriter. Additionally, special edition titles from renowned artists such as the Weeknd, Paramore, Pearl Jam, Talking Heads, David Bowie, and the Beatles will be available for purchase.
While fans have been eagerly anticipating a collaboration between Kahan and Rodrigo, this split single offers a taste of their musical synergy. Rodrigo expressed her admiration for Kahan earlier this year, hinting at the possibility of a future collaboration. Although this release may not be the full-fledged collaboration fans were hoping for, it is sure to be a highly sought-after collector's item.
Both Rodrigo and Kahan have busy schedules ahead, with Rodrigo embarking on her first arena tour starting on February 23 at Acrisure Arena in Palm Springs, California. As two rising stars in the music industry, their collaboration on this split single is bound to captivate audiences and further solidify their positions as hitmakers in the industry.
