In November 2015, at the peak of the High as Hope Tour, Florence + The Machine—led by Florence Welch and riding their third album How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful, where baroque-pop merged with blues hues and healing themes—delivered a climactic set at Voodoo Music + Arts Experience in New Orleans, a festival born in 1999 as a Halloween counterpoint emphasizing alternative and local culture in City Park. The 90-minute performance, rich with orchestral swells and Welch's dramatic vocal surges, embodied the American leg's zenith, where "Ship to Wreck" resonated through the crowd, transmuting the park into a cathedral of collective catharsis under Louisiana skies. As a rare artifact of her post-pandemic resurgence, this show underscored Florence's role as a modern shamaness, infusing rock with ritual scale.
