Florence + the Machine announce new album 'Dance Fever' and lead single 'My Love'

Today has been an exciting and busy day for Florence + the Machine Fans!

It has only been 2 days since the buzz-track ‘Heaven Is Here’ was released along with its music video, and today marked the announcement of the album name, artwork, as well as the lead single.

The 5th album is titled ‘Dance Fever’, likely named in ode to the dancing plague of 1518, where citizens danced uncontrollably in a state of mania, apparently infected with the urge, for 2 months. It is also likely a reference to the album being written during the COVID-19 pandemic, where a similar plague swept the world. It is co-produced by Jack Antonoff who also produced albums for Lorde and Taylor Swift.
