(Republic) Ahead of his upcoming, sold-out "Stick Season Summer Tour," critically acclaimed Vermont singer and songwriter Noah Kahan drops a live rendition of his fan favorite song "Orange Juice" and captivating cover of Jason Isbell's "If We Were Vampires" featuring Wesley Schultz of The Lumineers for Spotify Singles-listen here.

The updated, piano-ballad version of "Orange Juice" features Noah's raw and emotional vocals alongside his signature songwriting. On the acoustic guitar-driven "If We Were Vampires" cover, Noah and Wesley's voices fuse together, creating a stunning reimagining of the Jason Isabell classic.

On recording "If We Were Vampires," Noah says, "Getting a chance to perform one of the greatest songs ever with one of my biggest influences ever was one of the highlights of my life. I grew up rewatching every live performance The Lumineers had done, so mesmerized by their sound and their storytelling. I wish I could tell myself back then that I would actually get the chance to sing a song with Wesley in his hometown. I would have been so shocked. However, that shock would have turned to disbelief if I could have told myself I'd be able to record with Wes, singing one of Isbell's masterpieces."

He continues, "'If We Were Vampires' is a song about time, aging, and what true love really is. It's a song that has meant a lot to me ever since my mom played it for me on a road trip years ago. Hearing Wes sing with me on this Spotify Single version is a bucket list item crossed off. So grateful to Wes for being a part of it, Gabe Simon for helping bring it to life, and to Spotify for giving me the opportunity. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do."
