Natalie Merchant, whose album and film Paradise Is There: The New Tigerlily Recordings, was released to critical acclaim on Nonesuch Records in November, kicks off a tour of a handful of international cities featuring music from the album with a performance at the Warfield Theatre in San Francisco tonight. The tour—An Evening with Natalie Merchant: The 2016 Paradise Is There Tour—continues with shows at the Orpheum in Los Angeles and the Beacon Theatre in New York, then heads to the UK and Europe for shows in London, Berlin, Utrecht, Brussels, Manchester, and Dublin.

See below for all of the details and ticket links where still available.

Paradise Is Thereis a collection of all-new recordings that revisits Merchant's multi-platinum solo debut, Tigerlily, originally released in 1995 following her departure from 10,000 Maniacs. The new release is accompanied by a documentary DVD. The memoir-style film contains live performances, archival footage, and interviews with musicians, friends, and fans about the influence the songs of Tigerlily have had over the past 20 years. MOJO, in a four-star review, says: "Time has only amplified the power of Merchant’s music."

    The Library of Congress has acquired the collection of manuscripts, instruments, costumes, video and audio recordings, and more from Kronos Quartet and its non-profit organization, Kronos Performing Arts Association. “It’s gratifying to know that Kronos’ legacy will be preserved in perpetuity alongside the manuscripts and other treasures of so many other influential musicians from the US and around the world," said KPAA Executive Director Janet Cowperthwaite. "We are perhaps even more excited to reflect upon all the musicians and scholars who will have access to these materials in years to come, informing their own work and carrying Kronos’ inspiration and influence into the future.” The Library also appointed Kronos founder, artistic director, and violinist David Harrington as the Kluge Chair in Modern Culture and inducted Kronos’ 1992 album Pieces of Africa into the National Recording Registry.
