Florence and the Machine have dropped a new song.
Following King, Heaven Is Here marks the group's second new song of 2022. It was first announced in a post on social media yesterday (March 6) by vocalist Florence Welch, who also revealed that she had created choreography to accompany the song for the first time.
Unfurling around ominous drumming and starkly contrasting light piano notes, the track was the first song the singer penned after the COVID-19 lockdown. She said:
"Heaven Is Here was the first song I wrote in lockdown after an extended period of not being able to get to the studio.
"I wanted to make something monstrous. And this clamour of joy, fury and grief was the first thing that came out.
"With dance studios also shut it was my dream to one day create choreography with it. So it’s one of the first pieces of music I have made specifically with contemporary dance in mind."
There's still no news on the follow-up to their last album, 2018's 'High As Hope'.
