Paloma Faith is latest act confirmed for Thetford Forest gigs

Published on 14/01/2013 10:42

The captivating Paloma Faith is the latest act to announce that she will be performing at Thetford Forest this summer in a line-up that already boasts acts including Paul Weller, Blondie and The Script.

The singer said: “I’m really excited about these shows. It’s going to be a great experience so I hope you will be able to join me on my woodland adventure this summer.”

Her debut album, Do You Want the Truth, or Something Beautiful?, was released in 2009, and introduced Paloma Faith with a glossy ensemble of retro-referencing soul and sassy pop songs. From the brass-blasted stomp of Stone Cold Sober to the quirky Upside Down, and the epic sweep of her biggest chart hit New York, the record went on to sell over half a million copies.

Her 2012 album, Fall To Grace, continues to build upon the success of her debut release.

A collection of compositions in a new contemporary realm, chart success has already been assured with singles Picking Up the Pieces, 30 Minute Love Affair, Just Be and her enchanting cover of Never Tear Us Apart.

Her achievements have been recognised by the music industry with Brit Award nominations. Her platinum selling album Fall To Grace is up for Best Album, and she has also been nominated for Best British Female.

Talking about her Brit nominations, she said: “I am delighted to have been nominated for these Brit awards. I don’t expect to win, but it’s so wonderful to be acknowledged for contributing something to British music.

“I am very proud to be British and so happy to do something I love.”

Paloma Faith plus special guests will be performing at Thetford Forest on June 14.

Tickets cost £32.00 and go on sale at 9am on Friday, January 18, from the Forestry Commission box office, call 03000 680400 or buy online at www.forestry.gov.uk/music
