About Florence Welch

Born in Camberwell, Florence is the niece of the satirist Craig Brown[5] and granddaughter of former deputy editor of The Daily Telegraph and former Daily Mail parliamentary sketchwriter Colin Welch.[6] She is the daughter of Evelyn Welch, an American Professor of Renaissance Studies and Vice-Principal for Arts & Sciences at King's College London[7] and Nick Welch, an advertising executive.[5] Her British father, Nick, contributed a "rock and roll element to the family mix;" in his 20s he used to live in a West End squat and attended the Squatters' Ball organised by Heathcote Williams where The 101ers played regularly.[8] A self-confessed "frustrated performer," if Nick, as he put it, "nudged Flo in any way, it's only been to listen to the Ramones rather than Green Day."[8] Evelyn had an equally strong yet completely different influence on her daughter. A visit to one of her mother's lectures left teenage Florence deeply impressed. She explained, "I aspire to something like that but with music. 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."[8]
Florence was educated at Thomas's London Day School then went onto Alleyn's School, South East London, where she did well academically.[1] Welch often got in trouble in school for impromptu singing.[1] Welch has been diagnosed with dyslexia and dyspraxia.[9] Following her meteoric rise to fame, she suffered a bout of depression.[10] Upon leaving school, Florence studied at Camberwell College of Arts before dropping out to focus on her music.[1] Welch's fascination with terror and doom was intensified by the death of her grandparents within a few years of each other. At the age of 10 Welch witnessed her grandfather's deterioration, and her maternal grandmother, also an art historian, committed suicide when Welch was 14.[1] When Welch was 13 years old, she and her mother moved in with their next door neighbour and his three teenage children. According to Welch: "We get on brilliantly now, but it was a nightmare then. I just used to stay in my room and dance around."

According to Welch, "The name Florence and the Machine started off as a private joke that got out of hand. I made music with my friend, who we called Isabella Machine to which I was Florence Robot. When I was about an hour away from my first gig, I still didn't have a name, so I thought 'Okay, I'll be Florence Robot/Isa Machine', before realising that name was so long it'd drive me mad."[1][12] In 2006, Welch's performances with Summers in small London venues under the joint name Florence Robot/Isa Machine began to attract notice.[citation needed]
In 2007, Welch recorded with a band named Ashok, who released an album titled Plans on the Filthy Lucre/About Records label. This album included the earliest version of her later hit "Kiss with a Fist", which at this point was titled "Happy Slap".
