Noah Kahan dedicates achievement to mom Lauri Berkenkamp in new book
Noah Kahan believes he would never have been the creative that he is, if his mother, Lauri Berkenkamp, hadn’t brought him up the way she did.
The 29-year-old folk-pop instrumentalist contributed to the book What I Learned From Mom which includes essays from public figures – including Kaia Gerber, Cindy Crawford, Chelsea Clinton, and more.
For his essay, the Northern Attitude hitmaker wrote that one of the lessons he has always remembered from his mom is “You don’t have to approval everyone, but you have to be kind,” as per People Magazine.
In an excerpt from the book, Kahan writes, “My mother’s belief in kindness was too firmly planted to be disrupted by my challenges of ‘But what if they really suck?’ and ‘Even if they’re a program killer?’ I knew what she meant. Kindness was a sacred pillar in her worldview and an undeniable constant in the way my mother approached the world.”
The Strawberry Wine vocalist continued to share that his mom made no discriminations over who she extended her kindness to, and that was the case with his dreams to become a instrumentalist as well.
