In June 2010, British indie-rock outfit Florence + the Machine, led by charismatic Florence Welch and riding the debut Lungs, which sold over 3 million copies and earned a Grammy for "Dog Days Are Over", headlined day two of Pinkpop, Europe’s oldest annual festival in Landgraaf, capping a lineup with Green Day and Rammstein. The half-hour set, brimming with dramatic vocal surges and orchestral swells, captured the band's nascent era, where baroque-pop fused with festival euphoria under summer sun, turning the stage into a theater of mystical catharsis for tens of thousands.
