WATCH: Florence & The Machine (Sydney Metro Theatre, January 2010)

There’s little room to doubt Florence Welch’s popularity in Australia.  The astonishing thing about her is that she makes her performances look so effortless.  Songs that are “hard” and “strident” on record are imbued with a sense of warmth in a live setting.  Here’s a lovely moment from Florence & The Machine‘s recent Laneway sideshow at Sydney’s Metro Theatre.
