Chappell Roan's new album is a "new version" of the pop star.

The 'Casual' hitmaker's producer, Dan Nigro, has teased that they have finished five tracks on the follow-up to hit debut album, ‘The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess’, including one featuring the fiddle.

He told The New York Times: "I'll say that much. It's a new version of Chappell."

Fans can also expect a "fun, up-tempo country song," a "couple of ballads" and a "mid-tempo rock song."

Despite the 26-year-old viral sensation being vocal about the pressures of fame and the "predatory" behaviour of some fans, Dan insists that won't be reflected on the new record, which is expected to feature the unreleased live-favourite ‘The Subway’.

He said: "We're still writing from a really fun place.

"We'll see what happens."

The 'Good Luck, Babe!' singer praised the studio wizard - who has also worked with Olivia Rodrigo - for always believing in her and instilling her with the confidence to write and perform in a way that makes her "feel good".

She told the publication: "Dan always believed in me.

"He has been there from the beginning and brought me into realising what makes me feel good to perform, what makes me feel good to sing, to write about. Because he believed in bringing that part of myself to life, I started to believe in it, too."

Chappell - who has cancelled concerts amid her struggles with fame and was diagnosed with severe depression - released a statement about needing to "set boundaries" after some fans overstepped the line and insisted that just because she chose the career she has, that doesn't mean she should be subjected to "harassment".

She wrote on Instagram: "For the past 10 years I’ve been going non-stop to build my project and it’s come to the point that I need to draw lines and set boundaries. I want to be an artist for a very very long time. I’ve been in too many nonconsensual physical and social interactions and I just need to lay it out and remind you, women don’t owe you s***. I chose this career path because because I love music and art and honoring my inner child, I do not accept harassment of any kind because I chose this path, nor do I deserve it.

"When I’m on stage, when I’m performing, when I’m in drag, when I’m at a work event, when I’m doing press…I am at work. Any other circumstances, I am not in work mode. I am clocked out. I don’t agree with the notion that I owe a mutual exchange of energy, time, or attention to people I do not know, do not trust, or who creep me out - just because they’re expressing admiration. Women do not owe you a reason why they don’t want to be touched or talked to. (sic)"
