Description

by Florence Welch (Author)

A stunningly personal collection of never-before-seen poetry, lyrics, and sketches from renowned musician Florence Welch

Songs can be incredibly prophetic, like subconscious warnings or messages to myself, but I often don't know what I'm trying to say till years later. Or a prediction comes true and I couldn't do anything to stop it, so it seems like a kind of useless magic.

For the first time, iconic artist Florence Welch, founder of the indie rock band Florence + the Machine, presents a raw, intimate glimpse into her creative process. Dreamy and magical, Useless Magic compiles lyrics from Florence + the Machine's first four albums--Lungs; Ceremonials; How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful; and High as Hope--interspersed with handwritten song drafts, heartfelt poems, and vibrant doodles and photographs.

A dazzling, haunting anthology of love, self-reflection, and the small wonders of life, Useless Magic showcases Welch's remarkable talents and serves as an inspiration to anybody searching to find meaning in the everyday.

Author Biography

She wrote the lyrics and co-wrote the music for the stage musical Gatsby: An American Musical and has collaborated with various artists including Taylor Swift, A$AP Rocky, Lady Gaga, and the Rolling Stones, among others.
