Brit award winner Florence And The Machine are set to play a huge outdoor show at Cardiff’s Coopers Field this summer.
Florence Welch and co, who won best British album at the Brit Awards earlier this year, will perform at the popular city centre park this summer on Thursday 10th June 2010.
Florence And The Machine’s sound has been described as a combination of various genres, including pop, rock and soul. The band’s music received massive praise across the music media before they had even gained mainstream success.
Their debut album “Lungs” was released last year on 6th July and held the No.2 position on the UK Album chart for its first five weeks of release. On 17th January this year, the album made it to No.1 on the UK album chart, having remained in the chart for 28 consecutive weeks up until that point.
Spawning countless hits, Florence And The Machine have had a terrific 2009 and a now face a busy 2010. Recording for the second album is already underway, back at the close of last year Welch revealed to BBC Newsbeat that recording for the second album would begin in January, expressing her enthusiasm to “start recording as soon as possible.” Expected for release in 2011, commenting on the new material, Welch remarked new tracks as being "...a bit more fuzzy, a bit harder. If the first album was animal and anatomical I think this one is chemical and elemental.”
With the singer confirmed for a series of festivals this year including Oxegen, T In The Park, V Festival and a headline slot at Latitude, the addition of this huge outdoor gig in the heart of the Welsh Capital will give fans plenty of opportunity to hear live some classics from the stunning debut album, as well as some new material set for release on the follow-up.
Florence And The Machine will play the following UK date:
June 2010
10th, Coopers Field, Cardiff
Tickets are available from 9am on Thursday April 1st.
