Chappell Roan

Pop star Chappell Roan is known for her unique, "campy" musical style. She debuted on YouTube in 2014 with the song "Die Young," which led to her signing with Atlantic Records. Her career began to take off with the 2017 release of her debut extended play (EP), *School Nights*. In 2020, her single "Pink Pony Club" marked a significant stylistic shift, bringing her into the spotlight, although she was dropped by Atlantic that same year. After a brief hiatus, Roan independently released a series of songs in 2022, demonstrating her artistic growth. The pivotal moment in her career came in 2023 with her debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, released through Island Records. The album received critical acclaim and earned spots on several "Best Albums of the Year" lists. While it didn't achieve immediate commercial success, it developed a cult following and was labeled a "sleeper hit." By early 2024, the album received a Grammy nomination for Album of the Year at the 67th Grammy Awards. Roan's success was further amplified by her appearances as a supporting act on Olivia Rodrigo's Guts World Tour and performances at major festivals like Coachella. The follow-up single "Good Luck, Babe!" helped the album reach number one in Ireland, New Zealand, and the UK and enter the top five in the US and Australia, marking a remarkable turnaround in her career. Recently, Roan slayed it on NBC’s Saturday Night Live. Don't miss seeing this superstar live.
