Florence + the Machine have started work on their third studio album.

Singer Florence Welch explained that she is past the difficult beginning stages of making a new record and is starting to see which direction the new music will take.



"I am actually really excited," Welch told Capital FM about the new project. "I sort of forgot how much of yourself you have to give to a record and how the beginning process of it is so hard.

"So when actually you've come through that process a bit and you can kind of see a clearer picture, you're like, 'Oh now I get it'."

She added: "It's coming through to that other side now and it feels good."

Welch was speaking at The Other Ball in London, which took place in aid of Arms Around The Child.

Florence + the Machine's new album will serve as the follow-up to 2011's Ceremonials, which reached number one in the UK and six in the US.
