A US pop superstar has announced a second Scottish show after the first sold out within minutes.
Chappell Roan, who found global stardom last year after her 2023 album The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess snowballed, has announced a second show on August 27 after there was "phenomenal demand" for the first show.
Roan will play at the Royal Highland Showgrounds on August 26 and 27 as part of their summer sessions.
Tickets for the August 27 show will go on sale at 10am on Wednesday April 16 on the Gigs in Scotland website. There will be no presale.

Announcing the second show on Monday afternoon, Gigs in Scotland wrote: “Bold pop hooks, sex positivity, honest songwriting, and a heavy dose of glitter make up the world of Chappell Roan, the multi-faceted pop artist taking the world by storm.
“The LA-based singer, songwriter, and performer exploded into stardom with her 2023 debut studio album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, a technicolor tale of self-discovery that landed on multiple year-end lists (Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, Billboard, TIME, more).”
Last month, Roan replaced herself at the top of the singles charts, the Official Charts Company said.
The singer, 27, whose real name is Kayleigh Rose Amstutz, secured top spot with her new country single The Giver.
Roan’s first foray into the county genre replaced her song Pink Pony Club as UK number one.
“We’ve never done a country song and I have such a special place in my heart for country music,” Roan wrote in an Instagram post.
“I grew up listening to it every morning and afternoon on my school bus and had it swirling around me at bonfires, grocery stores and karaoke bars.”
