Florence has a voice hewn from the rock and stamped in the gravel and shot out of a canon into the middle of your chest. She's a long pretty pale girl who makes up songs and sings them. The Machine is whoever's standing nearby playing an instrument at the time. She makes the kind of music Lily Allen or Kate Nash would make if they'd grown up locked in a cage full of snakes in the basement of a Louisiana funeral home.
Already a remarkable artist with a growing cult following, Florence Welch presents her debut album Lungs.
It is a truly terrific album- beautiful, ethereal, dark and enigmatic & fast becoming one of the most critically acclaimed this year.
NME 'This is the year Flo will put everyone in the world under her entrancing spell.'
Grazia 'Florence Welch is the girl we all want to be in 2009. Eccentric, glamorous and lyrical.'
Lungs is produced by Paul Epworth and James Ford (Arctic Monkeys, The Klaxons, Last Shadow Puppets) and Steve Mackay (Pulp, M.I.A).
