Our June cover star joined our October 2024 cover star to deliver "California" from Roan's 2023 debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess . The song was a fitting choice for their L.A.-area appearance, as it poignantly addresses Roan leaving her Missouri home to pursue her career in Los Angeles.
It was one of 27 songs Kahan performed on Saturday, according to setlist.fm , and came a few songs before the encore.
In fan-filmed footage, the two fist bump before Roan thanks him for inviting her to team up. "Noah always stands up for me, seriously," she said. "He's a good person, for real."
"This is the first song I ever heard of Kayleigh's [Roan's given first name] and the reason I fell in love with her music, and I'm just really proud of her and thankful that she would come sing with me. So this is 'California.'"
