Natalie Merchant Maps Out Autumn Acoustic Tour 2025

Former 10,000 Maniacs frontwoman Natalie Merchant announced her Autumn Acoustic Tour 2025. Longtime collaborator Erik Della Penna will perform with Merchant across the Northeast in November.

The acoustic tour promises intimate evenings of song and stories as Merchant and Della Penna bring their stripped-down performances to theaters and performing arts centers throughout the region. “Erik and I love playing our duo shows. We can be so stealth and spontaneous when it’s just the two of us. We read each other so well after all these years,” Merchant said.

The tour kicks off on November 1 in Great Barrington (Massachusetts), followed by a performance in Tarrytown (New York) on November 2. November continues with shows in Gardiner (Maine) on November 4 and Provincetown (Massachusetts) on November 6.

Merchant then performs in Newtown (Connecticut) on November 8 before heading to Portsmouth (New Hampshire) on November 11 and Stowe (Vermont) on November 12. From there, the tour rolls on with performances in Lebanon (New Hampshire) on November 14 and Hudson (New York) on November 15.

Next, Merchant brings the tour to Philadelphia for two consecutive nights on November 17 and 18. A Mid-Atlantic sweep includes shows in Vienna (Virginia) on November 20, Easton (Maryland) on November 21 and Annapolis (Maryland) on November 23. The tour ends on November 24 in New York City.

Tickets for all dates go on sale to the general public on Friday, June 6.
