Fancy an evening of high camp and huge vocals? Don't miss this Paloma Faith London concert, 02 Arena 2015.
Paloma Faith, The 02
Paloma Faith Blomfield, one of the few entertainers born with a stage-name, is now in her 7th year of wowing audiences with her mighty voice and high-camp vintage style.
Last March, Faith released her third record, A Perfect Contradiction, an album defined by huge vocals on tracks that, if you cut them, would bleed soul. Trouble with My Baby is a case in point: a snappy beat ensures a crisp opening, before Faith swoops in with a growl, confrontational and bold: a referential and definitively arch ‘50s vixen.
Likewise, Only Love Can Hurt Like This, with its ooh-ing trumpets and strutting drumbeat, together with Faith’s bellowing mournful grandeur, will stick in your head for days. Faith’s mournful vocals retain an unmistakeable grandeur.
If her music sounds like a welcome throwback, her live shows are just the shame. Think big costumes, big hair, big routines: in fact, her hair is often an attraction in itself, taking on a seemingly endless variety of gravity-defying styles. Faith as a burlesque dancer at university and her showmanship remains undimmed. Expect a night of unrepentant entertainment.
