A frontline report from Swifties for Kamala, but first: How Roan's unique combination of bombastic music, sexy lyrics, cheerleader energy, and queer positivity have taken over 2024.
I had a similar reaction when I first heard Chappell. I really love her — her music is special. And a lot of my Gen X friends do too. Her synth skews ‘80s but her themes are universal
Yes! I didn't get into this much here, but I *so* appreciate someone really coming to ENTERTAIN and not being shy about it. And the '80s vibes are real and very effective on me as a Gen Xer. I swoon every time I hear those Wham!-like synths at the beginning of "Good Luck, Babe!"
She is 19, and quite a songwriter in her own right. I share a bit of our story in my latest post, F*ck that night.
That is very cool! I will check it out.
She said she saw her in Nashville for $50 - front row last year. Now her tickets are 700!
so lucky!
My daughter was telling me that she was her favorite new artist. Guess I’d better go take a listen!
The might like this song of hers - Helena

Great taste! How old is she? I'd love to hear what you think once you listen.
Outrageously good! I think I’ve heard a few of the songs, but I didn’t know who sang them.
Fab fab fab!!!
thank you! <3

Love your take on Roan - and the mega string of Swiftie references! It feels like hope!
Thanks! The Swifties for Kamala event was definitely heartening.
