ALICE MERTON
verlegt vom 25.10.2025
Alice Merton has undeniably become known as the girl with no roots. In her songs, she’s always talked about celebrating life as a nomad, and making a home wherever you want it to be. In addition to platinum and gold awards in Europe and the US, Alice Merton’s career has been marked by incredible live moments. She has performed at festivals such as Coachella, Sziget and Lollapalooza.
After two studio albums (MINT, S.I.D.E.S), Alice’s next chapter began in 2024 with the release of ‚Heron‘. In this EP her thoughts turn inwards, and instead of finding a home in the outside world, she went on an internal journey of feeling lost on the inside and asking the question of all questions: who am I supposed to be, and how well do you know yourself at all?
It questions one’s own happiness, in a world where we are constantly influenced by other people’s opinions on what happiness is for them, especially through social media. It’s become almost impossible to filter out the noise and truly ask ourselves “What is it that we really want out of this life, and how well do we actually know ourselves at all? Can we independently find happiness without being bombarded by everyone else’s definition of what they think happiness is?“
All these questions are part of Heron, a name Alice decided on after landing yet again in a new city, and observing these elegant birds in the middle of London-Barbican, an unusual place you would think for such a bird, grazing away at midnight.
