Paloma Faith has been announced as the latest headliner of Forest Live, the series of summer shows taking place in some of England’s most pituresque locations.
Presented by Forestry England and in partnership with The Independent, the British pop star will perform a headline show in the unique outdoor setting of High Lodge, Thetford Forest, on 27 June.
Paloma has been teasing a "new era" across her social media channels. The English singer succeeds in making personal connections to her fans by creating music that allows her to be authentic with her own emotions and allows her audience to see another side of her.
The 'New York' singer's last studio album was 2020's ‘Infinite Things’, which dealt with becoming a mother and her relationship with Leyman.
Paloma said at the time: "My USP (Unique Selling Point) is the fact that I am brutally honest.
"Some people find it shocking and some people find it liberating. And I feel like this album will do both of those things.”
The 42-year-old musician has penned a deeply personal book 'MILF', delving "deep into the issues that face women today, from battling through the expectations of patriarchy to the Supermum myth".
In the memoir, Paloma also writes about the challenges of in vitro fertilisation (IVF), the early years of motherhood and “questions around identity and how motherhood impacts on that, to what it even means to be a ‘good mother’, how we need to embrace messiness, imperfection and the bitter sweet pleasures of being ‘selfish’ and putting ourselves first".
According to publisher Happy Place, 'MILF' "explores female identity and is part memoir, part polemic.
Paloma previously admitted that long-term relationships are "difficult".
The singer also suggested that making a life-long commitment goes against human nature.
Speaking to Overdue Magazine, Paloma - who married Leyman in 2017 - pondered: "Humanity has decided that we’re meant to be with the same partner for life and actually it isn’t that easy or that natural. The question is, is it forced upon us by societal expectation or is it truly in our nature?
