After Midnight
Growing up in the Midwest, Roan was taught that nothing good happens after midnight. But, once she moved to LA, she realised that after midnight was really the best time of day – “3 A.M. is so fun” she said. This song is for all the people that love to stay out all night and have a blast.
“‘Cause everything good happens / After midnight”
Perfect for: a carousel of your late-night adventures
Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl
We all know the frustration of spending hours getting ready for a first date, only for it to be a disappointment. In Super Graphic Ultramodern Girl, Roan decides that she’s done with “hyper mega bummer boys” and instead needs a “super graphic ultra modern girl”. Roan said she got the idea from an Architectural Digest video after the agent had described a part of the house as “super modern” and “ultra graphic” and Roan knew she had to use that phrase in a pop hit.
“You know what they say / Never waste a Friday night on a first date”

HOT TO GO!
Roan wrote this song because she wanted a fun song with choreography she could do with fans, and HOT TO GO! achieved just that. Whilst fans were packed in so tight at festivals that their choreography had to be toned down, the magic of seeing the whole crowd dancing in unison cannot be replaced. The song is fun and peppy which makes it perfect for Instagram captions. Truly any part of this song makes for a flirty caption.
“Call me hot, not pretty”

My Kink Is Karma
We all have our toxic moments, and My Kink Is Karma is Roan’s. The song acknowledges just how satisfying it is to see your ex struggling after a messy break up. It may not be the healthiest way of thinking, but that doesn’t make it any less gratifying.
“Six months since April and I’m doing better”
Perfect for: any picture of you thriving in October
Pink Pony Club
Pink Pony Club details the adventures of a Southern girl leaving her small town for LA where she is free to be herself. The song has become an anthem for queer liberation, something that is important to Roan and her fanbase. The song has a clear narrative, giving listeners the ability to visualise the fictional Pink Pony Club and the main character’s Southern mother worrying about her daughter.
