Paris Paloma:

I find most crowds I perform in front of very warm, and I felt so welcomed by Florence’s in particular. I’m very lucky there’s such a synergy between our fanbases so I felt very spoilt on that tour with such an attentive and enthusiastic audience!

PP:

I spend all my free time at home! I find it so important to be with my friends and loved ones when I’m not working so I don’t feel totally consumed.

PP:

I think what is most commonly misunderstood about the feminist movement is that it is not men versus women; feminists are working very hard to undo the damage that the patriarchy inflicts on BOTH genders, and I’ll have men in my comment sections shouting at me as though I’ve caused their loneliness epidemic and mental health crisis, which are products of the patriarchy and I’m working against the patriarchy.

PP:

Not really, not when it’s in good faith. You might as well ask if I’m tired of being asked about what I’ve done this week – women don’t become feminists because they have some special interest in it, it’s literally the fabric of our lives, both mundane and interesting and uplifting and exhausting.

PP: Immensely empathetic, creative, magical and community minded.

PP: Yes absolutely – this album is incredibly influenced by my fine art background. I think I’m a very visual person so it really helps me to build the world inside my head of what I write about in my music.

PP: You can expect a real expanse of feeling from one song to another, all the songs make up this anthology of loving, that feel like they’re right in the eye of the storm of those feelings, so they’re both vulnerable and expansive.

PP:

It feels like a massive step through a door to a more expansive world, whilst Cacophony feels like a window into my brain, The Fatal Flaw opens up a world of my relationships with other people, the love, the dysfunction, the gentleness, the heartache

PP: I actually can’t remember. I’m not sure what made me cry but I loved the painting “The Sense of Sight” by Annie Louise Swynnerton.

PP: The damage to our precious planet, and the undoing of our economy. The problems with it are detrimental.

PP: I think that line very much refers to the Silicon Valley billionaire’s dream of living forever, whether it’s literally in terms of their creepy attempts to extend their life or the horrid legacy they leave, of damaging our planet

PP:

Yeah absolutely. I think once AI music is on streaming platforms, it’s up to those streaming platforms to clarify the presence of AI music so that it can’t sneak in dishonestly. Before that though is the problem of plagiarism – I found over 30 of my songs had been sold against my will for thousands of AI to be trained off of, with no compensation or consent for me.
