Charlie Worsham releases first album in nine years via independent distributor ONErpm

Charlie Worsham's 'Once Upon a Second Time Around' arrived 7 August 2026 via ONErpm, an independent distributor — not Universal, Sony or Warner. The twelve-track set is his first full-length since 2017's 'The Beginning of Things'. Lainey Wilson co-wrote and sang on the album. A Sony Music Publishing EVP helped source outside cuts, making the release's publishing and distribution paths split between major and independent infrastructure.
