Info for Magic For a While

British pop singer-songwriter and drummer Florrie releases her sophomore album “Magic For a While”.

Florrie said of the album, “I am so excited for you to hear everything one been working on for the last 12 months... I started writing this album while I was living alone in LA, and had a lot of time to myself to really think about what I wanted to say (maybe too much). There are some songs on this record that I've wanted to write for years, and I'm just so incredibly proud of what we have created. There will be lots more music to come between now and October (don't worry).”

There are some artists who seem to have been part of the pop landscape forever. They quietly pop up in the credits, behind the drums or alongside some of our favourite names, before eventually stepping fully into their own spotlight. Florrie is very much one of those artists. From her Xenomania days to becoming a formidable songwriter, drummer and producer in her own right, she has accumulated quite the pop CV. And I’m rather enjoying watching this next chapter unfold.

2024 saw Florrie finally release her highly anticipated debut album, “The Lost Ones”. Yet, following the acclaim that greeted it, she clearly wasn’t interested in hanging around. Her sophomore album, “Magic for a While”, arrives on 16th October, giving us another glimpse into an artist who seems increasingly comfortable doing things entirely on her own terms.

And when you have worked with the likes of Girls Aloud, Kylie, MNEK, MEEK, Tove Lo, The Gossip, and One Direction. While also drumming on some monumental pop records. There’s little doubt that Florrie knows her way around a great pop song.
