Global pop sensation Chappell Roan has released one of the most anticipated songs in her growing discography—the official studio recording of her new single “The Subway”, out now on Amusement / Island Records. A gut-wrenching ballad that fans have been clamoring for since she began performing it live last summer, “The Subway”, produced by and co-written with Daniel Nigro, is another immaculately crafted home run that puts Roan’s once-in-a-generation talent at the forefront. The song tells the story of the quiet heartbreak of literal and metaphorical missed romantic connections and the pain that endures through the small daily reminders everywhere. Lyrically at her utmost vulnerable, Roan cleverly captures the disorienting grief of moving on with some of her most heart-felt songwriting yet and a vocal performance that defies any expectations. Her flair for the dramatic reverberates as her gentle soprano musings turn into full volume iconic catchphrases, “I made a promise, if in four months this feeling ain’t gone, well f*ck this city, I’m moving to Saskatchewan!”. Fans started to catch on that the long awaited single would soon be released as posters, murals and red tresses were spotted around New York last week and a video of a moving truck in Saskatchewan went viral. Yesterday, Roan launched a limited edition copper metallic 7” that quickly sold out, featuring “The Subway” (Side A) and previously unreleased “I Hate It Here”(demo) (Side B). LISTEN TO “THE SUBWAY” HERE Alongside, the song comes Roan’s most ambitious official video yet, shot on location in Manhattan, New York. Directed by Amber Grace Johnson (Jorja Smith, FKA Twigs, Lolo Zouaï), “The Subway” video is a high-camp love letter to New York and the one that got away, all shot on 35mm film. Throughout the video, Roan’s infamous red locks are shed, exposing the lovelorn singer in iconic New York moments, doing anything but blending in and literally getting dragged. On the subway she sees ghosts of her past and visions of her future self; in the outside world, she is plagued with garbage and rats but still remains in pursuit of that once special feeling.

Roan shares, “The cliche of 'the girl that got away' barely scratches the surface for me with this song. I wrote it as I was stumbling around New York with a broken heart and I kept envisioning us on every street, fire escape, coffee shop, park and yes… the subway.“ Last week, Roan announced a string of U.S. live dates this fall with multiple all ages shows in New York, Los Angeles and Kansas City, Missouri. The newly announced pop-up shows include a four-night takeover at Forest Hills Stadium in Forest Hills, NY on September 20th, 21st, 23rd, and 24th, crossing the midwest with a two-night stay in Kansas City at the Museum and Memorial Park on October 3rd and 4th; and wrapping with two nights at Brookside at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA on October 10th and 11th. As with previous Chappell Roan headline shows, $1 from every ticket sold will be donated to organizations that provide support and resources for trans youth.  Tickets are on sale for previously registered Fair AXS users from August 5 through August 7. Learn more at axs.com/chappellroan2025. Roan has also teamed up with Cash App and Visa to offer Cash App Visa Cardholders an exclusive discount.

I love these three cities so much and wanted the chance to do something special for them this year. Since I started performing, I have always wanted my shows to be a party that everyone is invited to, and the only way to do that is to keep ticket prices affordable and away from scalpers. The Fair AXS ticketing process for these shows is one measure we are taking to ensure tickets end up in the hands of fans who actually want to be there. With these shows we’re also giving $1 per ticket to organizations that provide resources and support for trans youth <3 It is so important that I give back to the Trans community as they have given me so much throughout my entire career. “ This new run of shows marks Roan’s first headline dates since her record-breaking 2024 festival season, where she drew some of the largest crowds at Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits, Bonnaroo, Gov Ball and more. She recently headlined Primavera in Barcelona and is set to headline Reading & Leeds Festivals and Edinburgh Summer Sessions, along with appearances at Øya Festival, Way Out West, Pukkelpop and more. Her Midwest Princess Tour, which spanned North America and Europe from September 2023 to October 2024, earned widespread critical acclaim for its theatrical visuals, queer celebration, and sold-out venues. A full list of previously announced international tour dates is available at www.iamchappellroan.com. “The Subway” follows Roan’s hotly anticipated 2025 single “The Giver”, a queer country anthem that debuted earlier this year at #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs Chart. First performed at her Saturday Night Live debut performance, the track arrived with a hotline teaser, national billboard campaign, and limited-edition vinyl series showcasing Roan in various over-the-top service roles – from plumber to private investigator - and landed NPR’s #1 spot ranking the best performances from the 50th anniversary season. The character of Chappell Roan, in all her fabulous glory, truly began to take shape with 2020’s “Pink Pony Club,” a song about a small town girl who finds belonging at a West Hollywood go-go bar that was inspired by Chappell’s real-life experiences in LA. Roan’s ascent to the top felt quick to some, but “Pink Pony Club” finally reached #1 at Pop Radio on its five-year anniversary of release and has become a defining part of her story. A critical smash, Roan’s debut album The Rise And Fall of a Midwest Princess (Amusement / Island Records) established Roan as a breakthrough singer, songwriter and performer who could combine fantasy with self-reflection, with songs like “Casual”, “Red Wine Supernova”, “HOT TO GO”, “My Kink Is Karma”, “Naked In Manhattan” and “Kaleidoscope” earning her 2024’s Best New Artist Grammy. Her highly conceptual theatrics and costumes for both live shows and performances on SNL, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and the 2024 MTV VMAs set the internet alight. A larger-than-life performer inspired by drag and burlesque, Chappell Roan has a reputation for making every show into a dance party that everyone wants to join.  LISTEN TO “THE SUBWAY” https://chappellroan.lnk.to/TheSubway WATCH THE OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO FOR “THE SUBWAY” https://chappellroan.lnk.to/TheSubwayOMV LISTEN TO “THE GIVER” https://chappellroan.lnk.to/TheGiver WATCH THE OFFICIAL “THE GIVER” LYRIC VIDEO https://www.iamchappellroan.com/videos/  STREAM / PURCHASE THE RISE & FALL OF A MIDWEST PRINCESS https://chappellroan.lnk.to/TheRiseandFallofaMidwestPrincess

PRESS PRAISE FOR CHAPPELL ROAN “In every mood and every song, she’s utterly commanding — witty and whip-smart, vocally assured and charismatic beyond words… the 2020s most exciting pop star.” - NPR “Roan has experienced the kind of rise that makes words like “meteoric” feel quaint.” - ROLLING STONE “Roan is the pop heroine America needs.” - TIME “Chappell Roan has become one of the biggest breakout pop stars of the past year, and made it happen in novel fashion.” - THE NEW YORK TIMES “The lines sting as much as they do stick... and as she explores queerness with alacrity, the songwriting maintains its stronghold throughout with its ringing hooks and keen storytelling.” - VARIETY “The hardest part of the music industry at all levels is getting people to care about your music, and Roan has given audiences reasons to care – whether it’s the music, the over-the-top aesthetic, or the inspiring backstory of a woman from Missouri coming to terms with her identity.” - BILLBOARD
