Union Street (CDSTUMM235) is the title of the twelfth album by Erasure. Announced on their website in November 2005, Union Street was released on April 3, 2006 in the UK and on April 18, 2006 in the U.S. by Mute Records.

This album contains past Erasure songs, "re-interpreted in an acoustic or country & western style". The album was preceded in the UK and the U.S. by the four-track Boy EP on March 20 and April 4, respectively. Boy EP is not eligible for the UK singles chart and was released to U.S. markets as a download-only.

As they did with The Erasure Show tour in 2005, Erasure has partnered with music distribution company Live Here Now to record and manufacture limited-edition CDs and MP3s of concert dates on the acoustic tour which promotes Union Street [1].
