CARLY RAE JEPSEN DROPS NEW SINGLE AND VIDEO “AFTER ALL”

 

SONG IS FROM DAY AND NIGHT, A 24-TRACK DOUBLE ALBUM, SET FOR SEPTEMBER 18 RELEASE VIA INTERSCOPE RECORDS


 

 

July 16, 2026 (LOS ANGELES, CA) – Today, multi-platinum, GRAMMY® Award-nominated pop singer/songwriter Carly Rae Jepsen shared “After All,” a glistening celebration of love, penned as she contemplated how motherhood impacts one’s identity, choices and perceptions. Jepsen wrote the song with frequent collaborators Kyle Shearer, who also produced, and Nate Cyphert. Listen to “After All” HERE.

 

In the official video for “After All,” Jepsen performs the song, reveling in the gently filtered daylight of a room as she surveys the reminders of the previous night’s joyous dinner party. As the piano amps up, images from celebrations across the decades flicker across the screen with the intensity of a fireworks display. View the video, which was directed by Aerin Moreno (Tate McRae, KATSEYE), HERE.

 

“After All” is from the “day” period of Jepsen’s forthcoming album, Day and Night, a 24-track double album that captures a blurred, dreamlike sense of time where nights stretch into mornings and days dissolve into nights, creating a feeling of being suspended inside a moment. Set for release on September 18 via Interscope Records, Day and Night is available for pre-order / pre-save HERE. Jepsen will launch Day and Night with a headline performance at NYC’s All Things Go Festival on Sunday, September 27 – her first live performance of 2026.


 

On Wires,” the album’s lead single, won widespread acclaim. Praising the song as “playful and powerful,” Consequence said, “The organic warmth makes it a fitting preview of the album’s Day half.” Clash hailed it as “a moment of subtle, understated bravado…A song that revels in tension and release, the vocal can be both coy and carnal, flirtatious and positively feral.” Listen to “On Wires” HERE. View the official video HERE.

 

Over the past 15 years, Jepsen has established herself as a true pop titan, carving out her own unique path with confidence and intention. She first rose to international prominence in 2012 with the irresistible global phenomenon “Call Me Maybe.” That blockbuster hit from her breakthrough album, Kiss, topped charts in over 47 countries and earned her two Grammy® nominations – for Song of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance.

 

Jepsen’s 2015 masterpiece E•MO•TION has become a modern pop landmark, amassing more than one billion streams worldwide and earning recognition as one of the defining albums of the 2010s from publications including Pitchfork and Billboard. She expanded her artistic range with 2019’s Dedicated, a sophisticated and emotionally rich collection that The Atlantic praised as “brilliant.” She emerged from a period of isolation in the fall of 2022 with The Loneliest Time, further showcasing her evolution as a songwriter and performer. Her B sides projects (E*MO*TION Side B, Dedicated Side B and The Loveliest Time) have offered fans a deep dive into her creative process. With nothing left to prove, Jepsen brings a sense of freedom and self-assurance to Day and Night.
