Tal Wilkenfeld Announces 2025 North American Headline Tour
At long last, the wait is over. Tal Wilkenfeld — the iconic voice behind Mic and a celebrated solo artist — has officially confirmed a new set of headline dates for her highly anticipated 2025 North American tour. The announcement, which was made this morning via her official website and social media channels, has already sent waves of excitement through her loyal fan base.
Known for her stunning versatility as a bassist, singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist, Wilkenfeld has carved out a unique place in modern music. Having first caught the world’s attention as a prodigious teenage bassist performing with legends such as Jeff Beck, Prince, and Mick Jagger, she has since evolved into a commanding solo artist with a deeply personal sound. Her 2019 album Love Remains showcased her rich voice and emotive songwriting, earning critical acclaim and a new wave of devoted followers.
Now, fans will have the chance to experience Wilkenfeld’s artistry live on stage once again. The 2025 North American tour is set to kick off at Boston’s iconic TD Garden on August 12, promising an electrifying evening to start the run. From there, the tour will travel through a series of major cities across the U.S. and Canada, including stops in Toronto on August 15, Saint Paul on August 19, Cincinnati on August 23, and Columbia on August 27. Additional dates and cities are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
A Dynamic Live Experience
Wilkenfeld’s live performances are widely regarded as transformative experiences. Seamlessly blending rock, jazz, folk, and blues influences, her concerts are marked by emotional depth, technical mastery, and an undeniable connection with her audience. Whether delivering a blistering bass solo or a delicate acoustic ballad, she commands attention with every note.
Fans attending this tour can expect to hear a mix of tracks from Mic, her most recent release that has been praised for its innovative sound and lyrical introspection, as well as selections from Love Remains and earlier works. Of course, given her extensive musical background, surprises are always possible — past tours have seen Wilkenfeld seamlessly transition into unexpected covers or impromptu jams, much to the delight of concertgoers.
An Artist in Constant Evolution
Wilkenfeld’s career trajectory has been anything but conventional. Born in Sydney, Australia, she began playing guitar at 14 before switching to bass at 17 — an instrument with which she would quickly make a name for herself on the global stage. Moving to Los Angeles in her late teens, she immersed herself in the world of jazz and fusion, gaining recognition for her technical proficiency and musical sensitivity.
By the time she was 21, Wilkenfeld was already performing alongside Jeff Beck, and her now-legendary live performance at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club in London (captured on the Live at Ronnie Scott’s DVD) introduced her to millions. Over the years, she has worked with a veritable who’s who of the music industry, including Herbie Hancock, Steven Tyler, David Gilmour, and Ringo Starr.
But it is her solo work that has most clearly defined Wilkenfeld’s artistic voice. With Love Remains and Mic, she has shifted the spotlight from her bass playing to her abilities as a singer and songwriter, creating music that resonates on a deeply emotional level.
A Tour Designed for Connection
For Wilkenfeld, touring has always been about more than simply performing songs — it’s about fostering a sense of community and connection. “There’s something magical about the energy that happens in a room when people come together to share music,” she recently said in an interview. “Every show is its own unique experience.”
To that end, the 2025 North American tour is being designed with the fan experience front and center. Venues will range from large arenas to more intimate theaters, providing opportunities for a wide range of concert atmospheres. VIP packages, meet-and-greet options, and exclusive merchandise will be available, allowing fans to engage with Wilkenfeld’s world on a deeper level.
