Florence and The Machine at Place Bell

The majestic Florence Welch launches her major world tour in Laval on September 2. Florence and The Machine will be at Place Bell to defend their most recent album, Dance Fever, published in mid-May. The disc, as its name suggests, took a more danceable turn to the music of the Briton. We can expect a big party on stage. An expert in theatrics, Welch knows how to put on an exciting show. Quebecers will have the chance to be the first to enjoy it before she and her group travel across North America, then to the United Kingdom and Australia.
