2026 Grammy Nominee - Chappell Roan - "The Subway"

Welcome back to Hitmaker Chronicles! I'm your host, Garrett Fisher. This week we continue our Grammy countdown with Chappell Roan's "The Subway" - the song she was terrified to release because fans already knew every word. We'll trace how a year-long rollout tested her patience, why she threatened to move to Saskatchewan (and what happened to tourism there), and how missing someone on the F train became her biggest hit. It's a story about live debuts, shoegaze guitars, and learning that sometimes the fans are right - even when that's absolutely terrifying.
