Charlie Puth Announces New Album Whatever’s Clever! and Drops Uplifting Single “Changes”

GRAMMY®-nominated hitmaker Charlie Puth is entering a bold new era with the announcement of his much-anticipated fourth studio album, Whatever’s Clever!, set for release on March 6, 2026 under Atlantic Records.

Kicking things off, Puth gives fans a taste of what’s ahead with “Changes,” an uplifting and timeless new single that perfectly showcases his signature blend of infectious hooks, sing-along choruses, and piano-driven melodies that lift the heart and spirit.

Praised by Rolling Stone as a “potential hit single” that lands somewhere between Steve Winwood’s ‘80s sound and Michael Jackson’s “Human Nature,” “Changes” marks the beginning of a defining new chapter in Puth’s career. Co-produced with BloodPop, the track highlights his most honest, fearless, and refined work to date.

Accompanying the single is a nostalgic, pre-digital-inspired music video directed by Charlotte Rutherford, featuring a charming cameo from Puth’s real-life wife, Brooke Sansone. The video offers a playful reflection on both personal and professional transformations.

Fresh off the single release, Puth is lighting up the stage with a series of sold-out underplay residencies at the iconic Blue Note venues. After a successful run in New York, where The New Yorker observed he seemed most “at home” at the legendary jazz club, Puth now brings the experience to Blue Note Los Angeles with back-to-back sold-out shows from October 16 to 19. Fans can catch his 7 PM show livestream tonight on TikTok, featuring special guests following earlier appearances by Babyface, Jimmy Jam, and Anthony Ramos in New York.

With over 35 billion global streams, nine multi-platinum singles, and a string of chart-topping collaborations including “Attention,” “We Don’t Talk Anymore,” and “See You Again,” Charlie Puth continues to prove himself as one of today’s most versatile and visionary pop storytellers.
