PARIS PALOMA

Even before the release of her first album, British artist Paris Paloma succeeded in what most artists have been waiting for a lifetime: With “Labour”, she landed a viral song, which as of today has generated over 11 billion views on social media and established the singer overnight as one of the most important feminist voices of her generation. Because the track is a challenge to patriarchal role models and unequal care work and is therefore an example of the activist, literary art of the British woman.

Born and raised in Derby, Great Britain, the singer found her way to music at an early age and was very interested in mythology and representations of nature, which still play a major role in her art today. In addition to the fantastic mix of indie folk, dark pop and singer/songwriter style, it is above all these powerful language images that have made Paris Paloma stand out since her first single releases. In 2024, the debut album “Cacophony” was released, in whose 15 songs the musician dedicated herself to topics such as trauma, healing and female identity. Her sound as well as the artist's live performances right from the start bring the British woman comparisons with Aurora or Florence Welch, with whom Paris Paloma recently toured as a support act. Two years after “Cacophony,” the sequel “The Fatal Flaw” is now due to be published, whose title was inspired by the successful novel “The Secret History” by author Donna Tartt. The album openly presents the singer/songwriter's innermost thoughts and takes up ancient approaches such as mystical stories, which are woven harmoniously into the personal lyrics. While the work, like many pieces of music, revolves around the core theme of love, Paris Paloma adds an unconventional new facet to the stories of platonic and romantic love: namely the irrepressible love for art, which is present in the life of the British woman from childhood on.
