Florence + The Machine Spring Dates

Florence Welch and her trusty machine are taking over the globe during the next several months with a new 15-city U.S. tour along with previously announced dates in South America, Europe and Australia.

Touring in support of its 2011 sophomore studio album, Ceremonials, the English indie pop band kicks off its 2012 schedule Tuesday in San Paulo, Brazil, at Arena Anhembi. Two more shows are booked in Brazil Jan. 25 and Jan. 28, followed by a gig in Tokyo Feb. 1.

The European shows take place March 2 through April 1. After nearly a dozen stops in Ireland and the U.K., Florence + The Machine play Germany, France, Belgium and Netherlands.
