Ed Maverick is taking La Nube en el Jardín on the road. The Mexican singer-songwriter, known for his distinctive strain of deeply personal indie folk, has announced a series of intimate theater shows on multiple continents this spring. It’s his first tour in three years.
Maverick’s travels will take him to nine cities across North America, Europe, and South America. He’ll begin in March with a pair of U.S. shows at New York’s Kings Theatre and Los Angeles’ United Theatre on Broadway. He’ll shift focus to Europe and the U.K. in the first week of May, with stops at London’s Union Chapel, Berlin’s Heimathafen Neukölln, Madrid’s Teatro Coliseum, and Paris’ La Cigale. The jaunt wraps up in late May with gigs at Bogotá’s Teatro Mayor Julio Mario Santo Domingo and Buenos Aires’ Auditorio Belgrano.
La Nube en el Jardín—which translates to The Clouds in the Garden—features 12 songs plus a bonus track, all presented as a single standalone audio track spanning 53 minutes and 49 seconds. Maverick’s unvarnished voice and guitar are the focal point of the project, forging a direct connection with listeners that will be magnified at these upcoming theater shows. At all La Nube en el Jardín concerts, Maverick will perform the album in full in addition to other highlights from his catalog.
Maverick, a native of Delicias, Chihuahua, first broke through at age 16 by posting videos of his original songs and Jake Bugg covers to YouTube. His 2018 debut album Mix Pa Llorar En Tu Cuarto (translation: Mix To Cry In Your Room To) led to a label deal with EMI and a move to Mexico City. He followed his 2021 EP eduardo by paring down his sound to the raw essentials for last year’s La Nube en el Jardín. “The songs were so simple and they were coming along in a simple manner, so I thought they needed to be recorded as simply as possible,” he told Rolling Stone. “It’s more intimate this way.”
