It’s more new music from Florence And The Machine after last year’s Call Me Cruella.

Florence And The Machine have unveiled their new single King with a video directed by Autumn De Wilde.

“As an artist, I never actually thought about my gender that much,” Florence Welch says. “I just got on with it. I was as good as the men and I just went out there and matched them every time.”

“But now, thinking about being a woman in my 30s and the future…I suddenly feel this tearing of my identity and my desires. That to be a performer, but also to want a family might not be as simple for me as it is for my male counterparts.”

“I had modelled myself almost exclusively on male performers, and for the first time I felt a wall come down between me and my idols as I have to make decisions they did not.”
