Paloma Faith Is Coming To America

Britain’s Paloma Faith will cross the pond come autumn for a brief run across the continent.  Tickets for shows in New York, Minneapolis, West Hollywood, San Francisco and other cities go on sale this week.

Named best British act at the 2014 Silver Clef Awards and best UK solo artist at this year’s UK Glamour Awards, Faith lands on these shores a few weeks before her new album, A Perfect Contradiction, arrives in stores Oct. 7.  Currently available for preorder via iTunes, the long player includes collaborations with Pharrell Williams, John Legend and Raphael Saadiq.

These days Faith is experiencing one of the biggest hits of her still-growing career.  Her single, the Diane Warren-penned “Only Love Can Hurt Like This,” shot straight up to No. 1 in Australia and peaked at No. 6 in the U.K.  Check out this video of Faith performing the song at London Fashion Week.

As further testament to her dynamic stage presence, you can get a preview of what to expect from Faith live on stage by listening to her Live From London Spotify session
