Noah Kahan has earned his first No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart with his latest single, "The Great Divide," marking a major milestone in the singer-songwriter's career.

According to Billboard, the track debuts atop the Feb. 14-dated chart following its Jan. 30 release, drawing 19.3 million official U.S. streams, 3.3 million radio audience impressions, and 5,000 sales in its opening week. The song also enters the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 6.

"The Great Divide" is the lead single from Kahan's upcoming fourth studio album of the same name, set for release April 24 via Mercury/Republic. His previous album, Stick Season, remains in the top 10 of the Billboard 200.

The chart achievement comes as ticket sales begin for Kahan's 23-date North American "Great Divide Tour," which will include stadium stops at Boston's Fenway Park, Los Angeles' Rose Bowl Stadium, New York's Citi Field, Chicago's Wrigley Field, and Seattle's T-Mobile Park. Gigi Perez is scheduled to join as support.

Tickets are available through Ticketmaster, with general public sales opening February 12 at 12 p.m. local time. Fans who registered in advance were able to access the artist presale beginning February 10. Limited availability may also appear on verified resale platforms depending on demand and location.

Kahan's rise from folk venues to major stadium stages reflects the growing impact of his introspective songwriting. With themes that often explore vulnerability and perseverance, his music continues to resonate widely as he steps into the largest tour of his career.
