Singer Kelsea Ballerini has shared details about her bond with fellow musician Noah Kahan. Speaking with People Magazine, Kelsea simply stated, “I adore Noah.”
From Collaboration to Deep Friendship
Describing her close collaborator, she shared, “I got to know him as an artist and a collaborator, but now we’re dear friends and I just can’t say enough about the human being that he is.” The songstress added, “He’s a good human.” She then recounted their collaborative performance at CMA Fest, saying, “It’s funny because for CMA Fest, we’ve done so much together and I’ve called in to ask him to do the Variety [Power of Women] event with me and all this stuff. So I almost felt like I didn’t want to bother him.”
A Last-Minute CMA Fest Performance
Kelsea elaborated on how the CMA Fest performance came about: “And so I texted him on the Monday, we played on the Friday, and I was like, ‘I’m sure the answer is you want to be a hermit right now, but just in case, do you want to come play CMA Fest?’ He was like, ‘I’ve never done CMA Fest. I’ve never played a stadium.’ I was like, ‘Didn’t you headline Fenway?’ He was like, ‘Yeah, but a proper football stadium.’” After some convincing, Noah Kahan agreed at the very last minute. “I was so grateful,” Kelsea Ballerini added. “And so we were able to play our song… and then my set got cut short because of the rain, but I was like, ‘You came all the way down here with your friends and your family. We have to do ‘Stick Season.’”
