    Florence seems like the loveliest person. She's like the lovechild of a folklorian witch who lives in a cottage and talks to animals and a stoned mermaid who has the ability to create new colors. In other words, the aesthetic I strive for!

      I'm a new Englander and I've found we are some of the best people in the country. Sure, we are no nonsense people but we also know how important one another is and we seem to treat people almost as well as Canadians do... But holding hands.... That TRULY is an accomplishment. We aren't big on "touchy feely" stuff... Unless instructed to be by a popular musician. We just can't help it.

    Florence mentioned Renaissance, which is fitting because her mother Evelyn is a professor of Renaissance History. Florence's look, however, is more along the lines of the Pre-Raphaelite painters' depiction of medieval figures. It is very odd, however, that her story about her first gig here is very different to the one she has explained previously. In that version, there is no guitarist, she did have a musical companion, Isabella Summers (who had been the baby sitter for Florence's younger sister) and it was the name of the band that she came up with just before the first gig, so not having the name first and the band after as she says here.
