Florence’s soaring, epic vocals, quirky melodies and self-contained musical world have already won her the 2009 Critics Choice Award at the Brits.
After her short run of intimate UK shows sold out within minutes of going on sale this week, Florence + the Machine has announced her album tour for November which will take place in the UK, France and Ireland. Starting in Paris on November 14th the tour visits all major UK cities including two nights at The O2 in London, with support from Willie J Healy and Aziya additionally at The O2, before finishing in Dublin 3 Arena on November 30th. Florence’s chosen charity partner for this tour is Choose Love whereby 7pound;1 from every ticket sold on this tour will be donated to them. Choose Love does whatever it takes to provide refugees and displaced people with everything from lifesaving rescue boats to food and legal advice. Their work has reached over 1.8 million people and supported over 250 fast-acting community organisations across Europe, the Middle East and along the US-Mexico border. Everything they do is powered by a vision of a world that chooses love and justice every day, for everyone.
