Dos Floris, real name Florence Donovan, is a one-woman band who plays multiple instruments and machines – the creator of melancholy music with attitude that somehow manages to be uplifting and warm at the same time. Think Kate Bush reimagined by the members of Radiohead and Sigur Ros. Her debut solo album,The Widowed Earth, was released to underground acclaim in 2017, with reviews calling her music ‘refreshing, different and sublime’, ‘incredibly evocative’ and ‘one of the most interesting albums to emerge for months, years even’.

A UK tour followed the album release where she was given a ‘one to watch’ accolade and was then selected as one of three artists to represent the UK at Linecheck festival in Milan in 2018. New tracks Starlight and On the Road were released in the summer of 2019, preceding a tour of Poland and Germany in October.

Dos Floris returns to Manchester to play some old and some new songs from her forthcoming second album Broken Love.
