Another day, another grab bag of late night performances... last night's action actually looked pretty good! While Conan and Jimmy Fallon are normally the go-to guys for whatever's hot and new, the coolness crown for October 27th definitely goes to David Letterman, who scored the US TV debut of the wonderful Florence + the Machine. O'Brien's choice wasn't too shabby either, with Strokes front...

Well, this just about seals the deal for my preemptive knighting of Florence and the Machine as the Best Act of 2009. Honestly, can she do any wrong? This time around, the singer channels the lovely Satine from Moulin Rouge, the camp of the great Kylie Minogue, and the fiery temptress present throughout the Lungs [...]
I must hang my head in shame a little when I admit that I have just begun to listen to Florence + the Machine's Lungs. The buzz has been plentiful for the group's debut album, buzz which has already included a 2009 Mercury Prize nomination.Young frontwoman Florence Welch has a formidable presence. She has the elegant musicality of Kate Bush, the hep-cool of Karen O, and the sensuality of
The first act for Glastonbury 2010 is to be named at a charity gig being staged next month at the festival site. The event, called Pilton Party and headlined by Florence and The Machine and Dizzee Rascal, will also feature the final of the Rockstar 09 battle of the bands competition. The top three bands from the heats will battle it out at the event for the prize of playing at the 2010 Glastonb...
It's rarer and rarer these days that a new album grabs me by the ears and refuses to let go. You know, the ridiculously amazing kind of music that you'd selfishly rather keep your own little secret, while still wanting the whole world to hear it, too.Such is the case with Lungs, the debut from London's Florence + The Machine, which I've been playing non-stop since my import copy arrived a week ...

Everett True dissects big mouth of the moment (according to the BBC Sound of 2009 long list) and part-time Bianca Jackson lookalike Florence And The Machine .
Oh Florence, with your endless legs and your fiery hair; your breath-taking voice and your quirky melodies; your mesmerizing hand-movements and your beautiful stories. It's impossible to take my eyes and ears off you. Need I say more? No, I only need to share her new video for You've Got The Love, originally by The Source and Candi Staton. Ear and eye candy in equal amounts, and my crush isn't ...
Oh dear, what to say? There might be something but I'll sit on it for a bit (Miss Teaser 2009, this is so unexpected I'd like to thank my family and the fairies).If I had enough fingers to thank you for what you've given me these years, I'd be a deformed octopus. Music? Friends? Eye and ear widening experiences? Etc? Where to begin and where to end. Dog days are over, MOG days never.Have a list...

The St Jeromes Laneway Festival has always held a special place in my heart... especially the Melbourne event.. The central business district of Melbourne Australia is a treasure trove of little laneways covered in street art, hole in the wall bars, cafes and one of our favourite places to photograph. Many a time whilst wandering I have come across random gigs, one that stands out was a rocki...
