Florence and the Machine Tickets

Florence & The Machine star Florence Welch has admitted that she is still struggling to come to terms with her sudden success.
 
In February, the singer capped a whirlwind 12 months when her debut album 'Lungs' was named Best British Album at the Brit Awards.

But despite being accepted by critics and the British public, Welch has revealed that she still feels overwhelmed.

“I just feel a bit shell-shocked and tired,” she said.

“Before the Brits I was in Japan and then I’ve been in Europe, travelling through every country.

“I’ve had times when I’ve just turned up in a hotel in Stockholm and gone into a meltdown. Crying and feeling lonely.”

But Welch, who suffers from dyslexia and dysmetria, said that her father was “fantastically good” at helping her to calm down.

In an interview with Grazia magazine, the singer also spoke about her new album, which she described as “dancey”.

And despite a lack of confidence, Welsh said she didn't “feel pressurised at all” with the follow-up to her debut.
