Hopefully most of you already are aware of my obsession with British music, especially by female hipster variety. Recently I stumbled upon a new act from London Florence & the Machine, which is the soulful vehicle for Florence Welch's massive voice. With an abundance of handclaps and twinkling piano, Florence & The Machine reminds me a lot of Marina & The Diamonds, in a good way. Florence has an EP and a few singles floating around out there and her debut LP Lungs is currently available in the UK and will be out in the US soon. London just knows how to churn out talented and awesome acts. Good show.
PS: TSRE is moving apartments today. Big day.
