2 min read

(AUS) Live Nation is thrilled to announce the debut Australian tour by the exceptionally talented UK songstress, PALOMA FAITH.

Currently in Sydney on a brief visit, promoting her latest and highest selling album to date, Paloma Faith will embark on her highly-anticipated first Australian tour, bringing her typically flamboyant performances to theatres across the country from Sydney to Perth in May 2015.

The tour follows the March 2014 release of Paloma’s third album, ‘A Perfect Contradiction’ (through Sony Music Australia), which has been an ARIA top 5 hit.

After emerging on the scene with 2009’s ‘Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful?’, followed with ‘Fall To Grace’ in 2012, ‘A Perfect Contradiction’ is an upbeat return, featuring collaborations with esteemed artists across many of the eleven tracks, including Plan B, John Legend, Stewart Matthewman, Raphael Saadiq and Pharrell Williams, who wrote and produced the single ‘Can’t Rely On You’.

The second single to be lifted from the album – ‘Only Love Can Hurt Like This’, written by the legendary Diane Warren – peaked at the top of the ARIA chart in July, and is Paloma’s first #1 hit not only in Australia but worldwide.

In the UK, the platinum-certified ‘A Perfect Contradiction’ debuted at #2 on the UK chart earlier this year and remained embedded in the top 10 for an incredible 16 weeks.
