She's back - Florrie, 'Live A Little'

If you happened to read my review of her Late EP from last year, you will probably be aware that I am quite partial to the musical stylings of former model and Xenomania drummer Florrie.  So you can imagine my excitement when, last week, she surprised her fans with a video for her brand new song 'Live A Little'.  My excitement increased ten fold when I watched the video and realised that A) the only thing better than Florrie is ten Florries at once and B) 'Live A Little' is marvellous.

Seriously.  For a song that isn't even the official first single from her debut album, this song packs a serious punch.  Trademark drums? Check. More hooks than there are in most albums? Yep. Hand clap assisted breakdown? They're all right here.  It's the Florrie you've come to know and love - but bigger. "I wanna see the animal in you escape" - if 'Live A Little' is anything to go by, Florrie's album is going to be one ferocious animal.

Watch this space (and this video).
