JADE announced as opener for Chappell Roan's shows at Edinburgh Summer Sessions
JADE has been announced as the special guest for Chappell Roan's two sold-out headline shows at this year's Edinburgh Summer Sessions. The Grammy-winning American pop singer will perform at the Royal Highland Showgrounds on August 26 and 27, following the release of her latest single, "The Subway" which debuted at #3 on this week's Billboard's Hot 100 list. These concerts will be her largest Scottish appearances to date, building on the success of her sold-out Glasgow O2 Academy show in September last year. JADE, best known as a member of Little Mix, has established herself as one of the most prominent solo pop artists in the UK since launching her individual career. Her debut single "Angel Of My Dreams" has cemented her position in the charts, and she recently appeared at the 2025 TRNSMT festival. She is also set to headline her own sold-out show at Glasgow's O2 Academy in October. Chappell Roan's Edinburgh performances come during a breakthrough period for the Missouri-born artist, who has rapidly gained international recognition with her debut album The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess. Earlier this year, she was crowned the Best New Artist at the 2025 Grammy Awards. Organisers expect the addition of JADE to the line-up to create even greater excitement for fans attending the Summer Sessions shows.
