Paloma Faith announces special guest Lucy Spraggan with Chris Simmons
17th June 2022
Paloma Faith is delighted to announce that Lucy Spraggan and Chris Simmons will be joining her this summer on ‘The Age of Optimism’ tour in Central Park, Plymouth.
Lucy Spraggan first began her career performing on the X Factor where she was first contestant in the show's history to score a Top 40 single and album before the live shows aired.
Accumulating nearly 40 million streams on Spotify across Lucy’s catalogue and over 121k followers with 540k monthly listeners, Lucy has managed to release 7 albums with 4 in the top 15 album charts with her last album in 2021 ‘Choices’ debuting at number 5 in the UK Charts her highest position to date.
Selling out headline shows at O2 Shepherds Bush and Manchester Academy, Lucy has performed to thousands of fans across the UK as well as performing in Germany, Holland, Austria, Switzerland, Spain, and France making her an act you are not going to want to miss this summer.
Lucy will also be joined by Chris Simmons. Having comparisons to an ostensibly motley crew of musicians such as Brett Anderson, Neil Finn and Paul McCartney, Chris is bound to stop listeners in their tracks this summer.
Having toured with Tom Jones in 2021 and Passenger, Chris Simmons has also played at a list of British festivals including Glastonbury and the Isle of Wight Festival, opened for Australia’s Matt Corby, and flown the English and Trans-Atlantic support flag for the likes of Kate Nash and Suzanne Vega to name just a few of his achievements.
On the announcement, Liz Doogan-Hobbs MBE, CEO of Grandslam Live said “I am thrilled that we are able to announce an incredibly talented line up who will be joining Paloma Faith for her ‘The Age of Optimism’ tour this summer. The shows are going to be amazing, and fans are in for a real treat.”
Live in Central Park, 9 July 2022.
