Noah Kahan gave fans an unexpected moment during his sold-out Rose Bowl concert in Pasadena on Saturday night, bringing Chappell Roan onstage for a surprise collaboration. The two artists performed Roan’s song California together in front of a crowd of about 56,000.
During the August 16 show, Roan also took a moment to praise Kahan before the performance. She told the audience that Kahan has consistently supported her and described him as a good person, adding a personal note to their appearance together.
The duet came during a major night for Kahan, whose Rose Bowl date marked the largest headlining concert of his career. The show was part of his Great Divide Tour and included material from his recent work as well as fan favorites.
Kahan closed the concert with an encore featuring End of August, Homesick and Stick Season. Roan’s appearance added another notable live collaboration to a night that marked a new milestone in Kahan’s touring career.
