Following her deeply personal previous record, ‘The Glorification of Sadness’, which navigated the raw aftermath of a break-up, ‘IN FULL COLOUR!’ serves as an exuberant counter-punch centered on hard-won joy. Produced by Jeff “Gitty” Gitelman (Hozier, The Weeknd) and mixed and mastered by Jaycen Joshua (Beyoncé, SZA), the album rejects artificial intelligence and digital samples entirely. Every single note was recorded using real instruments, while even the cover artwork was crafted by hand with scissors and glue to celebrate authentic human touch.
“This album is intentionally optimistic,” says Paloma. “In a world that can feel hopeless, this album is joy as protest. Humanity can win.”
The lead single ‘Gone’ delivers sixties and seventies soul infused with a Motown heartbeat and a Northern Soul stomp. Its accompanying visualiser launches ‘The Paloma Show’, an 11-part visual album directed with Theo Adams that pays nostalgic tribute to the technicolour heyday of 1970s and 1980s British television, featuring Paloma portraying an entire cast of eccentric talk show hosts and characters.
“‘Gone’ is about how isolating this job can be,” explains Paloma. “You can be on a stage in full sequins and wonder if anyone can really see you, or even worse, if you can see yourself at all anymore.”
Fans can catch the new material live when Paloma embarks on her nationwide tour in October 2027, kicking off at Derby Vaillant Live on 1 October before visiting major venues including London’s Royal Albert Hall on 13 October, two nights at Birmingham Symphony Hall, and concluding at Manchester O2 Apollo on 28 October. Artist presale opens at 10am on Wednesday 18 November, ahead of general ticket sales at 10am on Friday 20 November.
