Chappell Roan Releases Bold Country Single 'The Giver'

The Grammy-winning pop star explores her roots with a fiddle-filled, campy track that embraces country while staying true to her playful style.

  • Chappell Roan's new single, 'The Giver,' marks her first release since the hit 'Good Luck, Babe!' and showcases a country-inspired sound with a twist.
  • The track, co-written with producer Dan Nigro, features fiddle and banjo instrumentation alongside humorous, sapphic lyrics celebrating empowerment and individuality.
  • Roan debuted the song during a November 2024 performance on Saturday Night Live, where it was dubbed a 'lesbian country anthem' by fans.
  • The Missouri native emphasized that the song is a fun, standalone project and not a pivot to country, drawing inspiration from nostalgic country classics like Big & Rich's 'Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy).'
  • A creative promotional campaign included billboards, themed vinyl editions, and playful personas like a lawyer and plumber, reinforcing the song's cheeky and campy spirit.
