Pop powerhouse Sabrina Carpenter returns to Manila

MANILA, Philippines — American singer/songwriter and actress Sabrina Carpenter is set to return to Manila for her “The Singular Tour” on April 9 at the New Frontier Theater, presented by concert promoter MMI Live. 

Carpenter’s Manila performance coincides with the release of the album “Singular: Act 1,” which features the singles “Almost Love” and “Sue Me.”

The album has been two years in the making for the rising pop powerhouse and has been reported to be released in two "acts," with Act I in November 2018, while Act II will be released this year. 

“Singular: Act 1” marks her third record in a three-year span since her debut album, and she has grown considerably as an artist and writer between each release. The “Singular” album is a set of eight songs (all of which she co-wrote), blending her R&B-style vocals with the atmospheric pop sensibilities she helmed on her sophomore record “EVOlution” (2016).

Carpenter is known for starring in the feature film “The Hate U Give,” based on Angie Thomas’ 2017 novel of the same name. She can  be seen in the upcoming Netflix comedy “Tall Girl” and will take on her first leading role in “The Short History of The Long Road” in 2019 in addition to releasing “Singular: Act II.” 

Watch out for Sabrina Carpenter at the New Frontier Theater on April 9. Tickets are now available in all TicketNet outlets nationwide or log in at ticketnet.com.ph.

About Sabrina Carpenter

Nineteen-year-old singer, songwriter, and actor Sabrina Carpenter’s journey into music, television, and film began at an early age. 

Her debut album, “Eyes Wide Open,” released in 2015, reflected her life over the previous three years, while her sophomore album, “EVOLution,” released in 2016, launched her first ever sold-out fall 2016 headline “EVOLution Tour,” traveling across 35+ cities in the United States. 

In May 2017, she joined The Vamps as a special guest on their UK arena tour as well as Ariana Grande’s “Dangerous Woman” tour in Brazil in June before heading out on “The De-Tour,” her 30+ date summer headline trek in July. 

Prior to “The De-Tour,” Carpenter co-wrote and released her RIAA-certified gold single, “Why,” which Billboard hailed as “highly promising of what’s to come,” and proved to be a hit on Top 40 radio. Carpenter’s vocals were featured on Lost Kings’ track “First Love,” released in October 2017. 

In 2018, she released “Alien” with Jonas Blue, which became the #1 Breakout Song on the Billboard Club chart and has amassed nearly 43 million global combined streams since its release. 

Most recently, she wrapped up filming the feature film “The Hate U Give” for Fox. She also stars in an independent film “The Short History of the Long Road” opposite Steven Ogg, Maggie Siff and Danny Trejo.
