California

About California

In “California”, Chappell expresses homesickness and disappointment that her plans of moving to California for her music career weren’t working out as she had planned. Chappell originally wrote and released “California” in 2020 amidst the COVID-19 pandemic while quarantining in her hometown of Willard, Missouri. Chappell penned the song following a setback in her career when her 2020 single “Pink Pony Club” didn’t meet expectations, resulting in the label she was signed with at the time dropping her. .
