CD Review – Paloma Faith

Listeners who enjoy Duffy and Amy Winehouse have a new indie soul pop singer to add to their playlists.

Paloma Faith, a 24-year-old London actress, former magician’s assistant and burlesque dancer, released her first album on Sept. 29 in the United Kingdom.

The absolutely amazing album, “Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful,” features ten extremely well written and performed songs. It’s original, and impossible stop listening to.

Faith’s lovely voice combined with storytelling, sensitive lyrics, acoustic guitar and a fantastic little orchestra make this debut album irresistible.

All songs are much enjoyable and “Stone Cold Sober” is a perfect dance song for upcoming holiday season.

Other extra wonderful tracks are “Broken Doll,” “New York,” and the title track.
