Florence + The Machine stopped by The Graham Norton Show on Friday to promote their upcoming album, Everybody Scream. The appearance featured a powerhouse performance of the title track, followed by Florence Welch sitting down for an interview alongside fellow guests Bruce Springsteen, Jeremy Allen White, Jennifer Lawrence, and Tessa Thompson.
Welch belted out “Everybody Scream” with furious intensity, backed by a choir with synchronized choreography. Their literal screams added to the already haunting nature of the performance, which was accentuated by a tight rhythm section and dynamic piano. Watch a replay below.

During Welch’s chat with Norton, she referenced previously guesting on the show alongside Springsteen before revealing that his Born in the U.S.A. cut “I’m Goin’ Down” was one of the first songs she ever performed. At the time, she only “had three of my own songs” while playing “pubs and clubs of London.”
The guest panel then joked about the two artists doing a duet of the track when they next appear on the show together. Welch also confirmed that the Halloween release date of Everybody Scream was an intentional move: “I actually turned this album around faster than usual because I just wanted to make this day. We have to make this day because it all rhymes: Florence + The Machine, Everybody Scream, out on Halloween.”
Marking the follow-up to 2022’s Dance Fever, the album also features last month’s single, “One of the Greats.” Grab your physical copy here.
Florence + The Machine have yet to announce a North American tour, but are set to embark on a run of dates in the UK and Europe beginning in February 2026. Get tickets here.
