Honeymind is the third studio album by American singer and songwriter Ben Platt, released May 31, 2024 and first since signing with Interscope. Described by Platt as a "homecoming," the album was inspired by his relationship with fiancé Noah Galvin and touches on themes of Americana and queer love.[2][3]

Preceding the album's release, Platt announced on social media that the first single "Andrew" would be released on March 14, 2024.[4] To support the upcoming album, it was announced on March 18, 2024 that Platt would hold a three-week Broadway residency at the Palace Theatre in New York City, the first announced event at the theatre since its renovations began in 2018. The residency Ben Platt: Live at the Palace ran for 18 performances from May 28, 2024 to June 15, 2024.[5] On April 11, 2024, the album's second single "Cherry on Top" was released alongside the announcement of The Honeymind Tour, a 21-city North American tour that began on June 18, 2024 in Boston and concluded on July 27, 2024 in Seattle.[6] The album was the first of Platt's albums to not chart on the Billboard 200.
