Sabrina Carpenter has just unveiled her eagerly awaited new album, Short n’ Sweet, a project that showcases her evolution as an artist and songwriter. The album, which features 12 tracks, is a deeply personal journey, resonating with themes of vulnerability, self-discovery, and empowerment. Collaborating with industry heavyweights like Amy Allen, Julia Michaels, Steph Jones, John Ryan, Julian Bunetta, and the renowned Jack Antonoff, who also produced the album, Sabrina has crafted a collection of songs that are both diverse and cohesive. Each track feels like a glimpse into Sabrina’s world, making Short n’ Sweet her most authentic work to date.
The lead single, “Please Please Please,” co-written with GRAMMY-Award-winning talents Jack Antonoff and Amy Allen, has already made waves, becoming Sabrina’s first #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. This milestone is one of many that Sabrina has achieved with this album. She also became the first artist to earn two #1 entries at Top 40 radio this year. “Espresso,” another standout track from the album, dominated the airwaves for three consecutive weeks, becoming the third fastest song to reach 1 billion streams in Spotify history. Its success on the Billboard Pop Airplay Chart solidified Sabrina’s position as a pop powerhouse, receiving widespread critical acclaim.
To celebrate the release of Short n’ Sweet, Sabrina will embark on the North American leg of her Short n’ Sweet Tour, starting on September 23rd in Columbus. The 33-date arena tour sold out rapidly, reflecting her growing influence and fanbase. The tour will make stops in major cities across the US and Canada, including New York, Los Angeles, Nashville, Toronto, and Austin. Fans can look forward to performances by opening acts Amaarae, Griff, and Declan McKenna, who will be joining Sabrina on this journey.
In a move that reflects her commitment to giving back, Sabrina has partnered with PLUS1 to launch the Sabrina Carpenter Fund as part of the tour. This initiative will support the well-being of both people and animals, focusing on mental health, animal welfare, and the LGBTQ+ community. Through this fund, Sabrina aims to make a positive impact on the causes she cares deeply about, using her platform to drive meaningful change.
As Short n’ Sweet continues to resonate with fans and critics alike, Sabrina Carpenter is solidifying her place in the music industry, not just as a pop star, but as an artist with a message and a mission.
