Florence + the Machine are back – it’s official. Steve Lamacq had the world exclusive play of What the Water Gave Me and since then it has caused a wave spreading across blogs of all varieties.

There is really only one way we can take Now Playing this week, therefore, and that’s with Miss Welch and her supporting mechanics.

Send us your suggestions for tracks you would pick related to Florence:

• Your favourite tracks from Lungs

• Tracks from artists she’s worked with

• Female songstresses who she’s taken a lead from – Kate Bush anyone

• Her contemporaries - Bat for Lashes, La Roux etc.

• Music from machines?

And also let us know what has water given you…

Suggestions on a postcard, Facebook, Twitter, Spotify, e-mailor right here on the blog and we look forward to you joining us on Friday from 7pm.

About this blog

Hello, and welcome to the Now Playing @6Music blog – the hub of the Sony Gold Award winning weekly show which is broadcast between 6-8pm on Sunday evenings with Tom Robinson on BBC 6 Music and where the discussion continues for the remaining 166-hours of the week.

The overall direction of the radio show will be dictated by what is discussed here, as well as our other social media channels such as Facebook and Twitter, with playlists debated and news stories picked over, as well as recognising some of the best music bloggers around.

This is your opportunity to help shape the show, so if you have anything to say, leave a comment, get in touch via the channels above or e-mail us – we look forward to hearing from you.
