Nashville, Tenn. (May 2, 2025) — Giving fans more of the phenomenal in-person experience 10x-Platinum band MercyMe is known for, “MERCYME LIVE 2025” is slated to continue this fall with nine-time GRAMMY® nominee Natalie Grant and newcomer Sam Wesley. The announcement comes as the award-winning act is scheduled to complete a 31-market spring leg this next week — with support from Zach Williams and Wesley — concluding with a final run of shows in Texas. Today’s newly announced fall dates will take the group to another 12 cities beginning Oct. 17 in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and wrapping Nov. 8 in Topeka, Kansas.

The pre-sale for this fall’s “MERCYME LIVE 2025” begins next Tuesday, May 6 at 10 a.m.local time, while the public on-sale starts Friday, May 9 at 10 a.m. local time. Ticket options and more information are available at mercyme.org. Routing is listed below.

The welcome addition to MercyMe’s itinerary comes on the heels of another recent tour announcement that will find the band also embarking on a brief trek this fall with fellow hitmakers TobyMac and Matthew West. The eight-date stint runs from Sept. 25 - Oct. 5.

Amidst a full calendar that’s already notched multiple sold-out shows across the country, MercyMe returned to Red Rocks Amphitheatre Apr. 22 to share a one-of-a-kind evening with fans. The event marked the band’s fourth time to headline the iconic venue. However, this year’s stop at the National Historic Landmark in Morrison, Colorado, was especially memorable. Alongside a full set from MercyMe, concertgoers also had the opportunity to be a part of a live taping for “I Can Only Imagine 2.” Cast members, including Milo Ventimiglia, Trace Adkins, Sammy Dell and John Michael Finley, were in attendance to film the pivotal scene. Production for the sequel began in March in Nashville. The highly anticipated movie will release in theaters Mar. 20, 2026.

While work continues on the film, MercyMe is putting the finishing touches on their next studio album. The upcoming project’s lead single, “Oh Death,” is racing up the charts, entering the Top 10 at Christian radio this week.

ABOUT MERCYME:
It continues to be a landmark time for the multi-platinum selling, GRAMMY® nominated, multiple American Music Award, Billboard Music Award and Dove Award winners MercyMe. They were named Billboard’s Top Christian Artist of the 2010 decade, and in 2020 received their eighth American Music Award nomination. A major motion picture based on the life of frontman Bart Millard who wrote the mega-hit song “I Can Only Imagine” after the loss of his father, opened at a remarkable No. 3 at the box office on Mar. 16, 2018 (Lionsgate, Roadside Attractions). In conjunction with the movie release, Millard penned a memoir and the band released a collection of hits titled I Can Only Imagine – The Very Best Of MercyMe. In 2018 MercyMe was named Top Christian Artist at the Billboard Music Awards, was the top winner at the fan-fueled K-LOVE Fan Awards including a win for Artist of the Year, and was the GMA Dove Award Winner for Artist Of The Year. Since their debut in 2001, the band has sold more than 9 million units in CD, single and DVD sales, garnered more than 49 No. 1 multi-format radio singles, and had four consecutive mainstream radio hits. MercyMe made history in 2014 as “I Can Only Imagine” surpassed 2 million digital downloads, making it the first song in Christian music to go platinum and double-platinum in the digital domain. The song has now gone 5x platinum. In 2009, Billboard named MercyMe’s “Word Of God Speak” the No. 1 Song of the Decade and the group the No. 1 Artist of the Decade in both the Christian Songs and Christian AC Songs categories, recognizing them as one of the industry’s most notable talents. They have sold out venues throughout the US and Canada, including Radio City Music Hall, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and have appeared on the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, Good Morning America, GMA3, The Today Show, CBS This Morning, FOX & Friends, CNN, ABC News and in the pages of Entertainment Weekly, The New York Times, USA Today and more. Their eleventh album, ALWAYS ONLY JESUS, is available now.
