The singer is gearing up to release his latest album ‘Whatever’s Clever’ on March 6, 2026, and in anticipation he played a string of four dates at New York’s Blue Note Jazz Club last month, and on Thursday (October 16), he began a similar four-night run at the Los Angeles branch of Blue Note.

At the second show on Friday (October 17), he welcomed out the star of The Fly, Jurassic Park and Wicked, joking as he introduced him: “I love to give a new up-and-coming singer a chance”.

Goldblum, whose own music career has been flourishing in recent years, sang a version of the jazz standard ‘Every Time We Say Goodbye’, as well as an interpolation of Lauper’s 1984 classic ‘Time After Time’. Goldblum is a former colleague of Lauper’s, with the two having co-starred in 1988’s Vibes.

‘Whatever’s Clever’ will be Puth’s fourth studio album, and this week he gave fans the first taste of it with the single ‘Changes’, which you can check out here:

Puth also made headlines last year after being on the end of a shout out on Taylor Swift’s album ‘The Tortured Poets Department’. On the record’s title track, Swift sang: “You smoked then ate seven bars of chocolate / We declared Charlie Puth should be a bigger artist.”

Puth responded to the song by thanking Swift and crediting her for inspiring him to write “one of the hardest songs” he’s ever written.

Goldblum released ‘Still Blooming’, his latest album with the Mildred Snitzer Orchestra, in April, and played a major show at the London Palladium to celebrate. It included collaborations with Scarlett Johansson, as well as his Wicked co-stars Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo.

In 2018, Goldblum spoke to NME about his later-in-life diversion in jazz music, admitting he had “never thought of making an album, really” before an impromptu performance on The Graham Norton Show caught the eye of someone at Decca Records. “It’s all taken me by surprise,” he added.
