You may not talk anymore, but the singer-songwriter Charlie Puth still wants your attention. The Grammy-nominated singer and pied piper of catchy pop songs has announced he will embark on his first-ever Australian tour later this year.
Produced by Live Nation, The Charlie Puth Presents The “Charlie” L Experience will kick off in Brisbane before arriving at Melbourne’s Margaret Court Arena to perform on October 29 and October 30.
Born in New Jersey, Puth began playing piano at four and later attended the Manhattan School of Music as a jazz piano major. The singer then started up his own YouTube channel, where he posted viral cover songs and original music. But it was his collaboration with rapper Wiz Khalifa on his debut single ‘See You Again’ – featured in the movie Furious 7 – that jumpstarted Puth's career.
Following the success of ‘See You Again’, Puth released his debut album Nine Track Mind in 2016, which included the singles ‘Marvin Gaye’ and ‘One Call Away’. He continued to release new music, such as the chart-topping songs ‘Attention’ and ‘We Don’t Talk Anymore’ featuring Selena Gomez.
Puth has released three studio albums in under a decade and amassed eight multi-platinum singles, four Grammy nominations, three Billboard Music Awards, a Critic’s Choice Award and a Golden Globe nomination. He has also collaborated with several artists such as Meghan Trainor, James Taylor, Katy Perry and John Legend, and also helped co-write songs for bands like One Direction and Maroon 5.
Tickets to see Charlie Puth are on sale from June 16 at 1pm. For complete tour and ticket information, visit the Live Nation website here.
