The announcement of his RDMA performance comes on the same day as the release of his sophomore album, “Voicenotes,” which immediately shot to #1 on the iTunes Album chart. Puth is a favorite of Radio Disney listeners and was nominated for two “ARDYs“ in 2017. Singles, “One Call Away” and “We Don’t Talk Anymore,” from his 2016 debut album “Nine Track Mind,” spent a combined 34 weeks on the Radio Disney Top 30 and his current single, “Done For Me,” from his sophomore album has been on the Radio Disney Top 30 for five weeks. The first two singles from “Voicenotes,” 2x-platinum “Attention” and platinum-certified “How Long,” spent a combined 32 weeks on the Radio Disney Top 30. This summer, Puth will embark on his biggest North American tour to date, kicking off on July 13 in Boston.
