Singer-songwriter Paloma Faith has revealed details of her forthcoming second album ‘Fall to Grace’, which is due for release on 28th May. The album was recorded with producer Nellee Hooper, who has previously worked on albums by U2, Madonna, No Doubt, Bjork and Sinead O’Connor, as well as the score to the 1996 film ‘Romeo and Juliet’. ‘Fall to Grace’ will be preceded by the new single ‘Picking Up The Pieces’ on 20th May.
‘Fall to Grace’ follows Paloma Faith’s 2009 debut ‘Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful?’, which entered the Top 10 of the UK Albums Chart upon its release and has since been certified Platinum. The album featured the hit singles ‘Stone Cold Sober’ and ‘New York’.
Speaking about ‘Fall to Grace’, the singer said: “The new album has taken on a very cinematic mood. ‘Picking Up The Pieces’ is no exception. It deals with the issues of being in a relationship with someone who is still recovering from a previous relationship with another person. It is a song about self doubt and insecurity. I am very excited to introduce my new sound into the world. Working with Nellee Hooper has been really inspirational.”
Producer Nellee Hooper said: “I’d never really heard of Paloma Faith. I was living in LA when her record came out, so I kind of missed it. Sony/RCA called me and suggested I meet her when I was next in London. At lunch she sat and talked in such detail, as if every song was a short film, referencing everything from Chinese romantic cinema to Hip Hop. When I played the CD she gave me the songs flew out of my speakers. We got together and decided right away to embark on this journey.”
