Alice Merton’s Upcoming European Spring Tour, New LP
Singer songwriter Alice Merton has an upcoming European tour with U.S. festival dates in support of her debut LP, Mint, kicking off the tour on March 14th in Bern, Switzerland and ending at Coachella and SandJam Festival in April.
Merton dives into the meaning behind the tracks on Mint, explaining “Some talk about growing up and moving around a lot. But a lot of others discuss the struggles we’ve had with starting a label, the feeling of trying to prove yourself to everyone.”
The final track of the album, “Why So Serious,” takes a jab at the press, who recently have kept asking the English German artist whether she’s going to be a one-hit wonder— not exactly the type of question a musician wants to receive. In fact, with such a stacked resume as hers, it is quite rude for anyone to suggest it’s merely due to a strike of luck.
Merton has gone platinum in six countries and accumulated over 261 million global streams, previously sold out headlining dates in New York and Washington, D.C., and praised by Billboard magazine, Rolling Stone, Jimmy Fallon's The Tonight Show, James Corden's Late Late Show, and Live With Kelly and Ryan.
She also founded Paper Plane Records International with a friend while studying at University of Popular Music and Music Business in Mannheim, Germany. See below for a full list of dates on her upcoming tour.
