Paloma Faith to play Dublin in 2018 and shares new details about her upcoming album

Faith has also shared the tracklisting and details behind her fourth album The Architect, which will be released on November 17th. Her first album since 2014's A Perfect Contradiction, she has managed to string together a wide variety of collaborators, including Sia, John Legend, Rag 'n' Bone Man, actor Samuel L. Jackson and journalist, Owen Jones.

Describing the album, Faith has said, "The Architect is a social observation record."

"I was adamant that I wouldn’t write about love. I wanted to look outside of myself. I’m coming at politics from the perspective of the common man or woman, observing why people are suffering. Each song on the record is about a different pocket of the socio-political world that I’ve been delving into.

"I wanted to write something more modern. On previous albums I’ve been more concerned with the past, but now I’m looking forward because of motherhood and wanting to change things for a better future. It’s a marriage of old and new."

The first single from the album, 'Crybaby' was released on August 31st.
