Paris Paloma (born 17 November 1999) is an English singer-songwriter and guitarist. She gained prominence through the single "Labour" (2023). Her debut album Cacophony was released in 2024.
Early life
Paloma grew up in Ashbourne, Derbyshire, and attended a girls-only boarding school. She studied Fine Art and History of Art at Goldsmiths, University of London, graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in 2022.
Career
Paloma met her first producer Harry Charlton in March 2020, with whom she made her debut single "Narcissus" and then "Ocean Baby", "Cradle" and "Underneath". During the COVID-19 lockdown, Paloma joined the Hybrid Tribe programme and was discovered by David Fernandez of High Plateau Productions. She released her debut EP cemeteries and socials in 2021. She continued putting out singles, including "The Fruits" and "It's Called: Freefall". Her cover of "Tell It to My Heart" was promoted by Hozier on social media. Paloma subsequently signed with Nettwerk in 2022, through which she released her first singles under the label "Forsaken" in December 2022 and "Notre Dame" in February 2023.
In March 2023, Paloma broke out with the single "Labour", described as a feminist anthem about the unpaid domestic labour women have been made to do throughout history. The song received 1 million streams on Spotify within 24 hours of release, and 1 million views on YouTube. A viral TikTok trend started in which various women around the world related the song to their own experiences with sexism. "Labour" became Paloma's first charting single in the UK and on Billboard in the US.
"Labour" was followed by further singles "Yeti" featuring Old Sea Brigade in July, "As Good a Reason" in September, and "Drywall" in October. She performed at the 2023 Bonnaroo, Summerfest, TRNSMT, All Points East, and Live at Leeds.
At the start of 2024, Paloma released the single "My Mind (Now)". In February 2024, Paloma supported Maisie Peters on the Europe leg of Peters' The Good Witch Tour. This was followed by a five-date UK headline tour in May and then U.S. dates. Paloma made her debut at the 2024 Glastonbury Music Festival on the BBC Introducing stage. She was named a Future Artist by BBC Radio 1. Paloma also appeared at the Best Kept Secret, BST Hyde Park where she supported Stevie Nicks, Splendour in the Grass, and Reading and Leeds.
At the end of August 2024 via Nettwerk, Paloma released her debut album Cacophony. Ahead of its release, she shared the track "The Warmth". In September, she embarked on a headline tour in Europe, supported by Sarah Julia. For The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim (2024) soundtrack, Paloma performed an original song titled "The Rider", composed by David Long. Paloma will take her tour to North America with 15 dates in 2025.
Artistry
During her childhood, Paloma's mother would play soul and jazz in the household. As she grew up, she developed an admiration for lyricists who tell stories and use wordplay in both simple and complex ways, such as Ed Sheeran. Sheeran's debut album + (2011) inspired Paloma to learn guitar. This translated into a further love for the storytelling of Florence + the Machine and Hozier, who "massively" influenced her. She cited Grimes for her "worldbuilding" and AURORA as further influences, and also mentioned enjoying The Mountain Goats and Harry Nilsson.
Paloma often looks towards literature and mythology in her songwriting, as well as fine art. Her debut single "Narcissus" was directly inspired by artwork of the titular Greek myth, and her second single "Ocean Baby" evoked the characteristics of Pre-Raphaelite paintings. Her 2021 single "the last beautiful thing i saw is the thing that blinded me" alludes to Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca, while Madeline Miller's Circe (2017) shaped parts of her 2023 single "Labour". Her debut album Cacophony drew from Stephen Fry's Mythos (2017); she also read Mona Chollet's In Defense of Witches (2022).
