Paloma Faith

Exploding onto an unsuspecting world in 2009, Paloma Faith has enjoyed a meteoric rise to fame since the release of her smash hitting debut single Stone Cold Sober.

Originally hailing from Hackney, this half Spanish, half British whirlwind has had performance in her blood from a tender age, working as a magician’s assistant, a dancer, an actress, a performer of burlesque, before finding her voice and her true vocation as one of the country’s most talented singer songwriters.

Her debut album, Do You Want The Truth Or Something Beautiful was an astonishing collection of the barnstorming rave ups and heart breaking torch songs, capturing the record buying public’s imagination and rocketing to platinum status in no time at all., Paloma Faith had arrived and was here to stay.

Her live shows have over the course of her short but illustrious career become a thing of legend, drawing on her theatrical heritage and embracing her love of burlesque and performance art to make her show much more than a gig, which means that when she lands at Bestival this year you can expect nothing more than an extravaganza of delights from the country’s leading light in musical mayhem.
