  <itunes:subtitle>Um, can you play a song with a fucking beat? Chappel Roan burst onto the scene with the musically ambitious, lyrically delicious "The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess". The album literally pulses with youthful exuberance, exploring themes of sexual experimentation and alienation, all set to Roan's powerful vocals and theatrical performance. We're joined by guest Matt Storm aka Stormageddon ("Fun and Games, Reignite podcasts) to soak up this album's party atmosphere, and ponder the questions that come the morning after too.</itunes:subtitle>
