After opening for Shawn Mendes there and playing in a middle slot at Jingle Ball this year, Charlie Puth is going to try his hand at headlining Xcel Energy Center next summer. The "One Call Away" and "Attention" hitmaker just announced an Aug. 8 show at the St Paul arena.

Tickets go on sale just in time for late holiday shopping Friday at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster for $25-$69.95. "Starving" singer and "True Grit" actor Hailee Steinfeld will open the show.

Puth, 26, will be touring behind his upcoming record "Voicenotes," which he's already hyping with his new single "How Long" (posted below). The New Jersey kid put on a rather lackluster performance two weeks ago for the sold-out Jingle Ball crowd, which nonetheless responded to his appearance with ample screaming.
