Paloma Faith announced in March 2014 during promotion for her third studio album, "A Perfect Contradiction", that a few UK tour dates were in preparation, to be followed by a complete tour in the Autumn. These initial dates were announced in the form of four dates taking place in Ipswich, Cambridge and London in May 2014. Following this, on 31 March 2014, Faith announced via her Facebook the rest of the tour dates, taking place in October and November 2014.[1][2][3] Faith stated that she was excited to perform songs from her new album. The tour is also to include several festival dates in Europe.

Background

Faith stated, of her 7 September show at Bestival: "Bestival is the best festival because everyone gets dressed up and I will be too, dressing my band up... It’s so perfect that I should be invited to play at this festival this year because my new album, which is called A Perfect Contradiction, was all influenced by the history of soul music, particularly disco. So, I was listening to artists like Candi Staton, Prince, Chaka Khan, Gloria Gaynor, all of those types of artists, Parliament, Funkadelic, the lot... It is my favourite festival without a doubt, I’m so excited, see you there!"[4] She also made the comment that: "I am incredibly excited to perform this new album live. It’s a real ‘get up and dance’ record so let’s do that and bring the roof down!"

Faith announced dates for Australia and the United States and a UK arena tour in August–September 2014.[5][6][7] On September 22, 2014, Faith announced the postponement of her European dates from December 2014 to February 2015.[8] She also announced the cancellation of an Oregon date on October 2, 2014.[9]

In January 2015 it was announced that Faith would perform at the seven concerts of 2015's edition of the Forest Live festival. Faith previously appeared at the 2013 events.[10] Additional concerts at several music festivals were announced in January 2015, as well as a Croatian concert.
