Chappell Roan Setlist 2026 — Songs, Order & Running Time

Chappell Roan Midwest Princess Tour setlist — full song-by-song breakdown

The Midwest Princess Tour setlist is the load-bearing piece of the live show and the same broad structure has held across the theatre, arena, and festival-headline scales from the early 2024 dates on. A typical night runs roughly 90 to 105 minutes from first downbeat to curfew, splits into about 18 to 22 songs, and arcs through five recognisable acts. The cold open is theatrical — a costumed entrance, a wrestling-walkout or Wizard-of-Oz-inspired video package, the band and dancers entering across the deck — leading into 'Femininomenon' as the staged-anthem opener that sets the volume of the room. The front-of-set high-energy run carries 'After Midnight' and 'Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl' before the show pivots into the album-cuts middle section: 'Naked in Manhattan', 'My Kink Is Karma', 'Picture You', and a slower-tempo block that pulls 'Coffee' and 'California' onto the B-stage for the acoustic-and-vocal interlude (this is the wardrobe-change window). 'Casual', 'Kaleidoscope', and 'Red Wine Supernova' carry the second half — 'Kaleidoscope' specifically has emerged as one of the most consistent crowd-response moments of the night, with the whole room singing the vocal line back. 'HOT TO GO!' is the choreographed call-and-response anthem — the YMCA-style hand-spelling that the entire room performs in unison is the recurring per-show TikTok clip on most nights and the song that travels the furthest on the platforms the morning after a show. 'Good Luck, Babe!' carries into the encore lead-in as the crossover singalong moment. The encore is typically two songs — a rotational cover (Whitney Houston's 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody', Demi Lovato's 'Cool for the Summer', Diana Ross's 'I'm Coming Out', Cyndi Lauper, Cher, the rotation depends on the city) followed by 'Pink Pony Club' as the non-negotiable closer. The West Hollywood gay-bar pilgrimage anthem that the entire room sings as a single voice is the recurring post-show talking point and the project's load-bearing moment of the night. Surprise songs rotate through the deep-cut slot (early singles, School Nights EP cuts, unreleased material teased ahead of the next album) and the covers slot. Full live band on stage for the entire set, two to four dancers in drag-inspired costume, three to five Chappell wardrobe changes, and the moon-and-stars visual world plus the rotating thematic openings (Statue of Liberty, Wizard of Oz, wrestling entrance, drag-queen announcement) per city.

Does the Chappell Roan Setlist Change Night to Night?

About Chappell Roan

Kayleigh Rose Amstutz was born February 19, 1998, in Willard, Missouri — a small Springfield-area town in the southwest corner of the state, the daughter of a registered-nurse mother and a veterinarian father, the eldest of four siblings. She started writing songs in middle school, posted early covers to YouTube under her birth name, and at seventeen signed her first publishing-and-recording deal with Atlantic Records on the strength of a self-recorded demo of an early song called 'Die Young' — written in the months after her older cousin's death, which became the song that pulled her out of Willard and into the Los Angeles industry machine. The Atlantic chapter ran from 2015 to 2020 and is the part of the origin story she has been most public about in interviews: a teenage move to LA without the support network to navigate it, a series of singles that did not break through, a school of major-label A&R that pushed her toward a sound she did not feel was hers, the publishing-and-recording deal terminated in 2020 in the middle of the pandemic with the project effectively reset to zero. The pivot was Dan Nigro — the producer who would also produce Olivia Rodrigo's SOUR and GUTS — agreeing to work with her on a new project on his own terms after the Atlantic deal collapsed. The Chappell Roan persona (the name pulled from her late grandfather Dennis K. Chappell and from the Steve Earle song 'Pink Pony Club'-adjacent track 'The Pilgrim: Chapter 33', stage-cocktailed into the character that fronts the project) was built during the 2020 to 2023 working window — Pink Pony Club released as a standalone single in 2020, the EP School Nights re-issued through her own indie deal, and the Midwest Princess full-length quietly released in September 2023 to modest first-week numbers and a cult fan base that knew every word. The breakthrough was 2024 and it was not a single moment — it was a chain of them. The Olivia Rodrigo GUTS World Tour opening slot in early 2024 put her in front of arena audiences for the first time. The April 2024 single 'Good Luck, Babe!' became the first true crossover smash — a top-10 Billboard Hot 100 entry, eight months on the chart, the song that pulled the casual listener into the catalogue. The Coachella mainstage debut in April was, by the post-festival consensus, the largest Coachella daytime audience for an early-billed act in the festival's history — the crowd overflowed the field and the festival had to reroute foot traffic. Lollapalooza in August broke the festival's all-time single-set attendance record by a meaningful margin. By the end of the year the project had moved from the 500-to-1,500-cap club tier to sold-out arena multi-night runs and the festival headline tier. Midwest Princess streamed past two billion plays, Pink Pony Club went diamond, and the Grammy nomination slate covered Album of the Year, Record of the Year, and Best New Artist with the Best New Artist win as the formal coronation. She is currently signed independently to Amusement Records through a distribution deal with Island/Universal, manages through Nick Bobetsky's State Of The Art, and writes her material with Dan Nigro as the consistent co-writer and producer across the catalogue.
