Paloma Faith
Gearing up for another monumental chapter, British superstar Paloma Faith returns with the release of her brand new single and video ‘How You Leave A Man.’ The single precedes the 16th February release of Paloma’s sixth studio album ‘The Glorification of Sadness’. Earlier this week Paloma shared the news of her new album release date and inspiration with a personal note to her fans letting them know she was “...Looking forward to sharing this new era.”
She excitedly heralds the highly anticipated album with new song ‘How You Leave A Man’. It has ALL the makings of a new era of Paloma. It’s confident. It’s cinematic. It’s empowering. It’s compelling from beginning to end, all powered by the kind of anthems that transformed her into an icon. The single is about finding the confidence to walk away from a relationship and being empowered with your own happiness, its limitless expression of pop allows it to sit comfortably next to Paloma’s many chart successors and then some.
But ‘The Glorification of Sadness’ is more than an album about relationships. The celebration of finding your way back after leaving a long term relationship, being empowered even in your failures and taking responsibility for your own happiness. It is her most personal album to date, drawing on her own experiences with Paloma acting as the anchor to direct a deeply personal narrative and album.
Fans will also be delighted to hear that, to celebrate this next era in style, Paloma will embark on the ‘The Glorification Of Sadness Tour 2024’ tour across UK & Ireland. The 26 date tour kicks off in Reading, with a headline show at The Hexagon and includes a headline show at London’s Eventim Apollo concluding with a show in Lincoln. Tickets go on sale from the 20th October.
Thinking: Faith hasn’t been busier enough, in recent years. She’s released five albums, a flourishing acting career including a role as Bet Sykes in the Batman prequel series Pennyworth and starring as Florence De Regnier in Lionsgate's Dangerous Liaisons; ambassadorships for Greenpeace and Oxfam and more recently launched her own interior brand called Paloma Home.
This is a new Paloma Faith, recharged, empowered and back in control.
