Bold pop hooks, sex positivity, honest songwriting, and a heavy dose of glitter make up the world of Chappell Roan, the next multi-faceted force in pop music. Through her punchy bangers that combine fantastical narratives and heart-bearing self-reflection, the LA-based singer, songwriter, and performer born Kayleigh Rose Amstutz has emerged as the rare star who is both larger than life and real as fuck.
Chappell's breakthrough arrived in 2020 with "Pink Pony Club," a synth-pop smash about a small town girl who finds belonging at a West Hollywood go-go club. Named "song of the summer" by Vulture, the single immediately reached a devout audience of fellow misfits who now scream along to every word at Chappell's impassioned shows. Throughout a momentous 2022, she sold out her first headlining tour across the country and released her debut independent singles to critical acclaim from Rolling Stone, LA Times, and Pitchfork. Now, she readies her debut album, The Rise & Fall of a Midwest Princess, arriving September 2023 via Amusement Records/Island Records.
~~~~~~~~
Chappell Roan is a Los Angeles based artist hailing from Missouri. Her latest single, Naked in Manhattan is her first independent release, and the latest in her collaboration with writer/producer Dan Nigro (Olivia Rodrigo, Conan Grey, Caroline Polachek). Hailed as "a queer girl bop that simultaneously captures the electricity of having your first crush and the playfulness of coming-of-age exuberance... with delicate, yearning synths and floating falsetto that transition into a unbridled, beat-heavy release," by NPR, it continues her musical path that was first defined by her previous single, Pink Pony Club, in anticipation of her latest single, Casual, out now!
