Paris Paloma has emerged as one of the most vital new feminist voices in music. Her debut album Cacophony has already surpassed one billion streams and she shows no sign of slowing down. With her new single “Good Boy” featuring Emma Thompson, Paris Paloma is calling on men to break free from chasing empty approval in a system that harms everyone, including them.

This bold new chapter builds on a breakthrough year. Her gold-certified single “labour” became a cultural lightning rod in 2023, with more than 11 billion views across social media, 600 million Spotify streams and soundtracked movements from reproductive rights campaigns to anti-sexual violence advocacy.

On stage, Paris Paloma has carved out a reputation for creating worlds as immersive as her records. Her headline shows are gatherings where the community you make is as important as the performance on stage. Fans trade books and handwritten notes, exchange fairy messages and form impromptu circles; these concerts have become sanctuaries, both tender and defiant.

Tipped as the “natural successor to Florence and the Machine” and labelled “a gift to a new generation of Kate Bush fans” by The Guardian, Paris Paloma is one of the most compelling new voices in contemporary music.
