PALOMA FAITH ANNOUNCES NEW UK TOUR DATES FOR OCTOBER AND NOVEMBER
HER NEW SINGLE ‘ONLY LOVE CAN HURT LIKE THIS’ IS RELEASED ON MAY 12
“’Only Love Can Hurt Like This’ has the big, bold manner of Dusty Springfield”
– The Independent
“Best of all is…’Only Love Can Hurt Like This’, [an] anthem that every radio programmer must recognise as a genuine smash”
– Evening Standard
“It’s lavish ‘60s-style ballad ‘Only Love Can Hurt Like This’ that sounds most like a smash hit in waiting”
– Q
Paloma Faith will embark on a full UK tour in October and November. Her new single ‘Only Love Can Hurt Like This’ is released on May 12. The song is taken from Paloma’s third album ‘A Perfect Contradiction’, which shot straight to number two when it was released in March, and hasn’t shown any sign of moving from the top ten since.
Acclaim for ‘A Perfect Contradiction’:
“…her punchy, uplifting set of pastiche Sixties and Seventies soul, r’n’b and disco is perfectly pitched” – Daily Telegraph
“More fun than anything she’s done before” – Evening Standard
“Brassy, confident and split between retro-soul and shiny Eighties pop…” – The Mail On Sunday
“A funkier collection of snappy, percussion-led tracks that nod to 70s disco” – The Observer
“An upbeat and reassuringly soulful collection” – Daily Star 4*
“It’s a perfect mix of upbeat dance and slow soul and her husky vocals are unmistakeable” – Glamour
