Kayleigh Rose Amstutz (born February 19, 1998), known professionally as Chappell Roan, is an American singer and songwriter. Working with long-time collaborator Dan Nigro, her music is inspired by '80s synth-pop and early 2000s pop hits. Her music is heavily influenced by drag queens and is often described as "campy." When she was 17 years old, Roan uploaded a song titled "Die Young" to YouTube, leading Atlantic Records to sign her to the label. In summer 2020, she released a song titled "Pink Pony Club," which Vulture described as "the Song of Summer 2021." Her debut album The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess was released on September 22, 2023, through Island Records, Amusement Records, Show More and KRA International. This album would go on to reach the Top 10 on the Billboard 200 nine months after its release, peaking at number five. In 2024, after opening for Olivia Rodrigo during several stops of Rodrigo's GUTS tour (and then going viral on the social media platform TikTok), Chappell Roan surged in popularity. She went on to perform at Coachella, Governer's Ball, Boston Calling and Bonnaroo that same year, drawing large crowds. Her success was highlighted in an interview and subsequent performance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Her star continued to rise throughout the year, with her single "Good Luck, Babe!" which reached the top ten of several countries' charts, Chappell Roan continued to chart several singles from "The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess," with tracks such as "HOT TO GO!," "Red Wine Supernova," "Casual," and "Femininomonon" entering the chart months after release. Chappell Roan would eventually chart six tracks concurrently on the Billboard Hot 100, while continuing "The Rise And Fall of a Midwest Princess Tour" as well as her festival tour in the summer and fall of 2024.
