<\/a><\/p>\nWe catch up with the lovely and epically talented Florrie, bringing us the latest in beautifully melodic electro pop, for a New Noise grilling. Her success clearly stems from an innate obsession with all things musical, here she tells us about everything from aquatic-themed school plays and her long-suffering dad, to her kick-ass remixes and how it felt having Blondie aka Debbie Harry’s song-writing the seal of approval . . .<\/p>\n
So your full name is Florence, but are you Florrie both onstage and offstage; is it a stage persona or is it Florrie all of the time?<\/strong><\/p>\n No one has ever called me Florence except my nan when I was really little, and that was only in front of her friends when we went to her lunch club on a Sunday! I’ve always been Florrie. Both my parents had Aunty Florries so I think that\u2019s where they got it from.<\/p>\n You\u2019ve been described as a multi-instrumentalist and have been playing from a very young age \u2013 how old were you when you first picked up an instrument and what instrument was it?<\/strong><\/p>\n The first instrument I ever played was the drums. I was six years old and on a family holiday in Greece when I saw a drummer in a local restaurant. It was the first time I’d ever set eyes on a drum kit and I was totally obsessed! We went there every night and he would hand me a stick to keep time on the hi-hat while he played the rest of the beat. When we got home I nagged my parents for a kit for about a year! I think I’ve always had a good sense of rhythm, my dad says I used to be tapping along to songs on the radio when I was two or three.<\/p>\n
