A US MUSIC star has pleaded with fans not to visit his family home – and to respect their privacy.
Grammy-nominated musician Noah Kahan issued the appeal on social media after getting some unwanted attention following his huge success.

Fans have been on his tail and exploring the setting of his hit album Stick Season – which he has described as a love letter to his hometown of Strafford, Vermont, USA.
The post was captioned: “Please respect Noah and his loved ones’ privacy if you visit Strafford!”
The request read: “Hey folks, love you all and am always flattered by the dedication people have to understanding and becoming closer to the place that made some of the songs from Stick Season…
“But I have to ask that you please have respect for the privacy of myself and my family by not visiting private property.
“My family are real, normal people who live and work in their homes and want to feel safe and unbothered,” Kahan explained.
“Please don’t go to their houses.”
With a population of just over 1,000, fans have been busy posting videos and pictures on social media visiting locations featured in the tiny town made famous by Stick Season.
Kahan, who grew up in New England, released his third album, Stick Season, in 2022.
He now lives in Massachusetts and currently boasts 3.2 million followers.
The star’s Stick Season album has been streamed more than 1 billion times.
The singer was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 2023 and shot to fame in 2024 with an updated version of the album featuring Carlile, Hozier and Post Malone.
The Glastonbury star previously spoke about his close family and their support over the years.
At the Grammys, he said: “My mom was with me, driving me to all the open mics around the upper valley of Vermont and New Hampshire.
“She has been there for every show where no one was there… my mom is my closest ally and the person I look up to the most.”
The 28-year-old was joined on the BST Hyde Park Festival by Someone You Loved singer Lewis Capaldi.
The pair performed Noah’s hit 2022 single, Northern Attitude, together.
Lewis, 28, had taken a break from his music career in 2023 to focus on his health – but the duo received a huge welcome from the Worthy Farm crowd.
Following the gig – which saw him perform new track Survive – Lewis confirmed he is hitting the road on a brand new tour in September.
The All My Love singer’s performance also featured special guests Gracie Abrams, who is currently dating actor Paul Mescal, and Gigi Perez.
