Tara Clerkin Trio heads to North America in 2027: full tour dates revealed

After releasing their new LP in June, Bristol trio Tara Clerkin, Sunny Joe Paradisos and Patrick Benjamin are taking the record on the road: a short UK run this autumn is followed by a cross‑continent North American tour in January and February 2027. For listeners who caught the album in critics’ roundups this year, the dates offer a chance to hear the material live as the group brings its intimate arrangements to a mix of clubs and small halls.

The band, performing as the Tara Clerkin Trio, has earned attention from several year‑to‑date lists and drew praise for the album’s title song in a Best New Track review. The upcoming shows mark the trio’s most extensive North American outing to date and map a clear push to connect with audiences outside the UK.

Concertgoers should expect close, acoustic‑forward performances: the trio’s live setup tends to foreground Clerkin’s songwriting and the trio’s interplay rather than full band embellishments. The album’s title track in particular has attracted notice from reviewers and often appears near the center of recent setlists.

Expect close, acoustic‑forward performances that foreground songwriting.

Where this matters now: the January–February dates are the trio’s first major push across North America following the record’s release, so tickets for smaller venues could move quickly and these shows will shape how the album is heard outside the UK. Fans tracking touring updates should follow venue listings for the latest on onsales and any schedule changes.
