Sabrina Carpenter has announced a new album called, “Man’s Best Friend,” due out Aug. 29. The Grammy winner revealed these details on Wednesday morning during an Instagram Live where she was rifling through a stack of records by Donna Summer, ABBA and Dolly Parton, before landing on her own.
The teaser quickly revealed the album’s artwork, which features the blonde on all fours, with someone in black slacks grabbing a handful of her hair. Carpenter released the album’s lead single, “Manchild,” which was written by her and frequent collaborators Jack Antonoff and Amy Allen, last week. It quickly rose to No. 1 on both the Spotify U.S. and Spotify Global charts after arriving alongside a cinematic music video directed Vania Heymann and Gal Muggia.
“Man’s Best Friend” will be Carpenter’s seventh studio album and will be released almost exactly one year after the release of her chart-topping, “Short n’ Sweet” record, which was released last August. All three singles off the latter album, “Espresso,” “Please Please Please,” and “Taste,” entered the coveted Billions Club on Spotify. “Short n’ Sweet” sold 10 million albums globally, and earned Carpenter six Grammy nods as a first-time nomine. She took home the “Best Pop Vocal Album” award and “Best Pop Solo Performance” for “Espresso.”
This fall, Carpenter will be back on the road for a second sold-out North American leg of her “Short n’ Sweet” tour. The trek kicks off on Oct. 23 in Pittsburgh and will stop at major arenas in New York, Nashville, Toronto and Los Angeles. She will perform five nights at Madison Square Garden in New York and six nights at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, where the tour will conclude on Nov. 23.
