Paris Paloma is a unique singer-songwriter from Ashbourne, United Kingdom, whose work reads like poetry. Paris draws on and is inspired by figures from mythology, art history and the Romantics as she channels experience of womanhood throughout her songwriting. She is known to speak to the female experience, grief, love, death and power ranging from sentimental and heartbreak to sublimely aggressive and empowering. Paris’ eccentric sound takes influences from dark pop, folk, and indie genres; creating a sensational discography capturing something innately feminine. Her powerful messages and entrancing style has led Paris to virality across the internet with her song “LABOUR”
Inspired by Madeline Miller’s 2018 novel Circe, “LABOUR” is a stirring feminist anthem that speaks to the experience of female rage. Paris’s goal for listeners is simple:
“I think I want them to feel heard, or held, and whether they’re listening to something like ‘LABOUR’ and it’s something so angry, I want them to feel like their anger is valid.” she told NME, “If it’s something else, I want them to feel comforted, if it makes them cry I want them to feel held while they do that. I hope that my music can serve as a vehicle for a protective sphere in which to feel any emotions that need to be felt.”
