    After sitting in on one of her mum's lectures, the indie singer was left deeply impressed. "I aspire to do something like that but with music," she explained. "I hope that my music has some of the big themes—sex, death, love, violence—that will still be part of the human story in 200 years time. "In 2007 what she had hoped for finally happened - her breakthrough. Together with her friend Isabel (machine) Summers,  Florence and the Machine was formed.Since then, Florence has gone on to release several hit singles including , and , and has collaborated with artists such as Fatboy Slim, Drake and Calvin Harris.

    Her album peaked at Number 1 in the UK charts and won her two Brit Awards.
