Grammy-award winning and 6x nominated pop sensation Chappell Roan releases her highly-anticipated country anthem “The Giver” via Amusement/Island Records.
Her first release of 2025, and the first since her certified 4x platinum 2024 single “Good Luck Babe!”, “The Giver” is a glorious boot-stomping, fiddle-fueled expression of dedication and dominance. “Cause you ain’t gotta tell me, it’s just in my nature, so take it like a taker, cause baby, I’m a giver; Ain’t no need to hurry, cause baby, I deliver; Ain’t no country boy quitter, I get the job done,” the Midwestern darling twangs on its high-energy chorus. With raucous western instrumentation and heart-baring lyrics, Roan’s first country song marks the beginning of her next chapter.
“I have such a special place in my heart for country music. I grew up listening to it every morning and afternoon on my school bus and had it swirling around me at bon fires, grocery stores and karaoke bars. Many people have asked if this means I’m making a country album??? My answer is.. right now I’m just making songs that make me feel happy and fun and The Giver is my take on cuntry xoxo may the classic country divas lead their genre, I am just here to twirl and do a little gay yodel for y’all.” – Chappell Roan
To launch “The Giver”, Roan is releasing five 7-inch limited edition vinyl records, each featuring artwork that showcases Roan embodying different service-oriented characters including a lawyer, dentist, plumber, and private investigator. The characters mirror the personas on billboards in cities like Nashville, New York, and Los Angeles teasing the single and displaying phrases like “Your Ex’s Worst Nightmare”. The billboards, which sparked internet fervor, provided a hotline number, 620-HOT-TO-GO, which, when dialed, offers an amusing menu leading to previews of the new song. Listen to “The Giver” HERE.
