‘Good Luck, Babe!’: How Chappell Roan’s ‘Karaoke Song for the Ages’ Became the Soundtrack to a Generation of Situationships


Chappell Roan's 'Good Luck, Babe!' collaborators, Dan Nigro and Justin Tranter, look back on the early sessions and steady growth of the single.

Chappell Roan ’s first public performance of “ Good Luck, Babe!” took place on one of the world’s biggest stages for a musician, the Coachella festival. “Good Luck, Babe!,” a lilting synth-pop love song wrapped in self-denial, was released as a stand-alone single just one year after Nigro and Roan completed a demo with hit songwriter Justin Tranter. “It was my first time working with [Nigro and Roan], and I was jumping at the opportunity,” says Tranter, who shares credits on songs like “Sorry” by Justin Bieber and “Believer” by Imagine Dragons.
