Alice Merton has always been, since her debut, a voice that stands out from the crowd.
Born in Germany and raised between Canada and England, she turned her nomadic life into the beating heart of her music. With the release of No Roots in 2016, she immediately established her unique style: direct, sincere, personal.

Despite a song that brought her to the top of the charts across half the globe—amassing over one billion streams, earning eight platinum records, a gold record in the U.S., numerous Top 10 entries across Europe, and performing on the most prestigious stages from Coachella to Lollapalooza—her career has remained completely independent. Every step, from production to promotion, has been built with a clear, authentic vision, without the backing of a major label.

Over the years, she has released two studio albums—MINT and S.I.D.E.S.—that have solidified her signature blend of alternative pop, deep songwriting, and ever-evolving sound. But in 2024, with her latest EP HERON, Alice took a new direction, shifting her focus from the outside world to her inner one.

Heron is an intimate work—a reflection on emotional disorientation and identity. In a world dominated by social pressure and overexposure, Alice Merton questions what happiness really means and how well we truly know ourselves beneath all the conditioning. It’s an invitation to reconnect with a personal center, an inner compass that can guide us through the noise.

The title comes from a powerful image: a heron Alice saw one night while wandering through the Barbican in London—an elegant, silent figure, out of place and yet strikingly present. Just like her.

After a headline tour across the United States and two summers in Europe’s most iconic festivals, Alice Merton is ready to share this new artistic journey with her European audience. The 2026 tour promises not only to revisit the most beloved milestones of her career—from No Roots to Heron—but also to offer a preview of the next evolution in her sound. As always, whether looking outward or inward, Alice Merton is heading somewhere far.
