WELCOME TO THE PINK PONY CLUB

The SONGS, STORIES, PERFORMANCES, FASHION, and FUTURE of your favourite artist's favourite artist.

Step into the glitter-dusted world of Chappell Roan with this ultimate insider's guide.

From her early demos as Kalyleigh Amustz to the development of her drag persona and the dazzling stages of The Midwest Princess Tour, this guide chronicles her 10-year journey from small-town dreamer to global queer icon.

Delve into the inspiration behind chart-topping hits like 'Good Luck, Babe!', 'Pink Pony Club', and 'HOT TO GO!', along with lesser-known tracks and fan favourites. With iconic photography, stunning illustrations, and rare insights into her collaborations with Dan Nigro, Olivia Rodrigo, and Elton John, this book reveals the trials and triumphs that have fuelled her rise.

For fans, dreamers, and anyone who's ever felt like an outsider, this is your backstage pass into the mind of an artist who is fearlessly pushing the boundaries of pop music.
