Serving as a musical guest on Saturday Night Live is quite a huge deal, and some of our favorite artists will get to hit that iconic stage this fall. The roster of the first hosts and musical guests for the landmark 50th season has been unveiled, and it includes the likes of Billie Eilish and Chappell Roan.

Season 50 of the iconic sketch comedy will kick off on September 28, with host Jean Smart and musical guest Jelly Roll. The country star is gearing up for the release of his new album Beautifully Broken, which he promoted with singles “I Am Not Okay” and “Get By”.

Comedian Nate Bargatze will take the SNL stage on October 5 alongside Coldplay, who are fresh off their record-breaking Music of the Spheres World Tour and setting the stage for their new album Moon Music.

Ariana Grande will also be a part of Season 50, but she’ll be hosting this time around, while the rock legend Stevie Nicks will join her as a musical guest on October 12. 

Billie Eilish will return to Studio 8H on October 19 with the host Michael Keaton, after a series of tour dates at the Madison Square Garden this fall. Chappell Roan will make her SNL debut alongside John Mulaney on November 2, after blowing up this summer with viral hits “Hot To Go!” and “Good Luck, Babe!”
