The title track was written and produced by Welch over the past two years with a close circle of collaborators, including Mark Bowen of IDLES (who also appears in the single’s video), Aaron Dessner, and Mitski.

After needing lifesaving surgery during the Dance Fever Tour, Welch’s recovery led her into spiritual mysticism, witchcraft, and folk horror as she confronted the limits of her body and explored what it truly means to be “healed.”

The album moves through themes of womanhood, partnership, aging, and dying, exposing the murky and unsettling within the everyday.

Across five previous albums — 2009’s Lungs, 2011’s Ceremonials, 2015’s How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful, 2018’s High As Hope, and 2022’s Dance Fever — Florence has become one of the most significant artists of her generation, with multiple number-one albums in the US and UK and countless awards to her name.

Known for her earth-shattering live shows and singular, iconic voice, she has sold out venues and headlined festivals around the world.

She has shared stages with icons including The Rolling Stones, Lady Gaga, and Taylor Swift, and published a book of lyrics, poetry, and drawings titled Useless Magic.
