Ahead of the release of her highly anticipated debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess out this Friday 22 September, Chappell Roan has today announced her debut Australian tour dates set for this November.

25 November – MELT Festival, Powerhouse, Brisbane AA
26 November – 170 Russell, Melbourne 18+
Last week Chappell was announced on the US dates for Olivia Rodrigo’s 2024 arena world tour alongside Remi Wolf, PinkPantheress and The Breeders.
With bold hooks, powerhouse vocals, and theatrical flair Chappell Roan has built up a cult-like fanbase over the past year across releases like the booming, dancefloor-ready ‘Red Wine Supernova’, her breathtaking self-written ballad ‘Kaleidoscope’, and last year’s cinematic fan favorite ‘Casual’. Her synth-pop smash breakthrough, 2020’s ‘Pink Pony Club’ (co-written and produced by Dan Nigro), set the tone for Chappell’s evolution into her own version of pop stardom: a small town rhinestone cowgirl delivering euphoric, heartfelt bangers, and a queer icon for a generation.
About her debut album, Chappell says, “After 4 years in the making comes my 14-song album holding stories of unearthing my true self and fearlessly embracing queerness. With the contrast of my Midwestern upbringing and living in one of the biggest cities in the U.S., The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess mirrors the rollercoaster of being the popstar I always wanted to be.”
