Acts of Faith is the eleventh studio album from British R&B musical group Sault. Originally previewed in December 2023 at a one-night only concert in London (which was the group's first performance), the album was released for free as a continuous single track via digital distribution on 6 July 2024.
Reception
The live debut of Acts of Faith was met with positive reviews from critics. In The Daily Telegraph, Ali Shutler rated the show 5 out of 5 stars, stating that it was "part fashion show, part otherworldly escape, the first chunk of Sault’s near-three hour concert began with a handful of the collective’s more ethereal numbers as figures marched up and down the main runway". Stevie Chick of The Guardian gave the show five out of five stars and wrote that "their eclecticism is dazzling but grounded in substance, their anthems aiming at the feet and the heart with equal accuracy" making for an "immersive, eclectic, astonishing three hours".
Upon the album's release, Bill Pearis of BrooklynVegan called this "yet another stunner" from the group that is "a joyous rumination on faith".
