Borrell claims Florence’s success
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 19 December 2008
Razorlight’s Johnny Borrell has claimed responsibility for the success of Florence & The Machine, who are being tipped by many, including us, for success in 2009 and have just been announced as the winner of the Brit Critics’ Choice Award.
Borrell told The Sun: “Florence & The Machine are friends of mine. They’ve been playing some songs [I’ve written] in their live set for a while now. But I haven’t really talked about it before because the press always get the wrong idea and they’re just starting out”.
How much of a negative effect this claim will have on Flo is yet to be seen.
