On August 23, Sabrina Carpenter dropped her new album labeled “Short n’ Sweet.” This album is one of her best ones yet and is catching the eye of the internet. Carpenter is a popular artist who currently has six albums out and is on tour. On September 23, 2024, Carpenter started her journey on tour in Columbus, Ohio, and will end her tour on March 26, 2025, in Milan, Italy. She is traveling to nine countries and performing 45 shows.
Carpenter is a well-known actor and singer. She starred in the popular Disney Channel show “Girl Meets World” for three seasons while being only 13 years old.

Her new album is a fun and addicting album that is on repeat in my car. I listen to Carpenter when I am working on homework or driving to school because it is good music to multitask to. This is my favorite album that she has released, and I highly recommend giving her new album a listen. Also, Carpenter is coming to the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas on Wednesday, October 30, 2024 at 7:00 p.m., so if you love this album, you can catch her on tour.
