Welch dedicated the music video for 'Free' to the people of Ukraine amidst the Russian invasion. The second single ' My Love' and the third single ' Free' were released on 10 March and 20 April, respectively. Music videos for both songs were shot in Kyiv shortly before Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. The first single was soon followed by the release of 'Heaven Is Here', on 7 March. The single, titled ' King' was digitally released on 23 February 2022 along with its accompanying music video. The band's website was also updated with fifteen cards, the first of which featuring the mailer's design. That same day, digital billboards began popping up around London that featured the same picture of Welch that was printed on the card. The card had the word 'King' on it, and each envelope was inscribed with the wording 'Florence + the Machine – Chapter 1' along its back. On 21 February 2022, fans of the band received a medieval-styled card in the mail that featured a photo of Florence Welch dressed in period clothing.

In early 2022, Florence and the Machine were confirmed to be headlining a series of summer music festivals, including the Madrid's Mad Cool. She described the album as 'a fairytale in 14 songs' in the same post. On 9 March 2022, Welch posted the album cover to her Instagram account in a post announcing the album's pre-order date. The title of the album was inspired by Welch's fascination with choreomania, a social phenomenon in early modern Europe that involved groups of people dancing erratically. Welch also found inspiration in 'the tragic heroines of pre-Raphaelite art, the gothic fiction of Carmen Maria Machado and Julia Armfield, the visceral wave of folk horror film from The Wicker Man' (1973) to the A24 films The Witch (2015) and Midsommar (2019), Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992) was visually a big reference for the record and the costumes, and ' folkloric elements of a moral panic from the Middle Ages'. While recording the 'anthemic' Dance Fever, Welch and her collaborators fostered a 'dance, folk, '70s Iggy Pop' sound in the vein of ' Lucinda Williams or Emmylou Harris and more' that is meant to be enjoyed during 'the return of clubs, live music and dancing at festivals'. The first recording sessions for the album were originally scheduled to take place in March 2020 in New York City but were scrapped after the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic.

The majority of the album was recorded in London. To promote the album, Florence and the Machine embarked on the Dance Fever Tour which visited cities in North America, Europe and Oceania. “ King” earned a nomination for Best Alternative Music Performance at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards. Critics mainly praised the diversity of the sound, Welch's songwriting abilities and powerful vocals. The album received acclaim from music critics and is ranked as the best-received album in the band's release history. It reached the second place in Australia, Belgium, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand and Portugal and debuted in the top ten of several other record charts. It debuted atop the UK Albums Chart in the week of its release, becoming the band's fourth number-one album in their home country. The album cover was photographed by Autumn de Wilde, who also filmed music videos for the album's three singles: ' King', ' My Love' and ' Free', as well as the song 'Heaven Is Here'.ĭance Fever was a commercial success in Europe, the US and Oceania. The title and concept of Dance Fever originated in Welch's fascination with choreomania, a social phenomenon in early modern Europe that involved groups of people dancing erratically. Frontwoman Florence Welch has cited Iggy Pop as the biggest musical influence on the album which features a variety of styles, ranging from progressive pop to indie pop, disco, and industrial music. Work on the album was originally scheduled for early 2020 in New York City however, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the recording took place in London instead. Dance Fever is the fifth studio album by English indie rock band Florence and the Machine, released on by Polydor Records.
