Florence + The Machine rang in Halloween with a fittingly eerie performance for SiriusXM’s The Spectrum, delivering a live mash-up of Lady Gaga’s “Abracadabra” and their own fan-favorite deep cut “Which Witch.”
The appearance doubles as a preview of their new era, with Florence Welch and company dropping their sixth studio album Everybody Scream on Oct. 31 and plotting a North American headline tour for 2026.
The band’s take on “Abracadabra” — originally released by Gaga in February as part of Mayhem — merged seamlessly with “Which Witch,” a theatrical, chant-like track from the deluxe edition of How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful (2015). Welch’s vocals soared over gothic percussion and swelling strings, as the mash-up unfolded in true Florence fashion: dramatic, mystical, and steeped in raw emotion.
The Halloween broadcast marks one of the first full performances tied to Everybody Scream, the group’s first full-length album since 2022’s Dance Fever, which peaked at No. 7 on the Billboard 200 and at No. 1 on the U.K.’s Official Albums Chart.
Described by Welch as a fever dream of “witchcraft, mysticism, magic, poetry, and insanity,” the new LP taps into themes of mortality, rebirth, and feminine rage — inspired in part by the emergency surgery she underwent following a near-fatal ectopic pregnancy last year.
“The closest I came to making life was the closest I came to death,” Welch recently told The Guardian, adding that her creative recovery shaped much of the new project’s emotional scope.
Everybody Scream features the previously released singles “Sympathy Magic” and “Spell It Out,” both of which lean into the band’s darker sonic palette and mythic lyrical themes. The album drops on Oct. 31 via Republic Records.
Following the release, Florence + The Machine will head out on a North American headline tour in 2026. The Everybody Scream Tour kicks off in Minneapolis on April 8, with stops in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Toronto. Support acts will include rising stars Rachel Chinouriri, CMAT, and Sofia Isella across select dates.
Tickets go on sale Wednesday, Nov. 5, at 10 a.m. local time, with a pre-sale beginning Monday, Nov. 3 at 12 p.m. local.
