Florence And The Machine Hit The Road
English indie siren Florence Welch is bringing her baroque-pop-art to the states, fresh after the success of the release of her third studio album How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful in 2015. The frontwoman and her eight-time Grammy-nominated band set the international scene abuzz with their bold debut Lungs in 2009 and have secured their status as indie royalty with each subsequent release. Catch them and fellow alt-pop goddess Grimes as support on the How Big Tour, coming to Barclays Center in Brooklyn , NY , Closed June 15, 2016
With a powerful set of vocal pipes, the soulful songstress has a flair for theatricality, imbuing her shows with an old school elegance and a fiery intensity. Her meteoric rise has seen her tackle arenas and intimate venues with equal verve with ethereal and emotional performances. Canadian songwriter and producer Grimes occupies a similar creative space (see cosmic, lilting vocals) but adds the electronic edge of synth and dance into her musical mix. A concert match made in indie heaven!
