Today, Florence and The Machine announced their new album titled High as Hope. The album is set to be released June 29th via Republic Records and features collaborations with Kamasi Washington, Sampha, Tobias Jesso Jr., Kelsey Lu, and Jamie xx. This will be the groups first release since How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful in 2015.
The band has also released a new song and music video titled “Hunger,” which can be seen at the bottom of this post. Front-women Florence Welch said about the song “This song is about the ways we look for love in things that are perhaps not love, and how attempts to feel less alone can sometimes isolate us more. I guess I made myself more vulnerable in this song to encourage connection, because perhaps a lot more of us feel this way than we are able to admit. Sometimes when you can’t say it, you can sing it.”
