"In the name of love, let's not waste our time" 

Florence Besch's single 'Love Me Truly' is an honest call for love. There is no more time left to lose.
In a delicately dosed combination of dirty punk sound and soft pop, Besch creates her very own genre: Dream Grunge.

The lyrics are raw and smell of love-making. The cosy voice floats unerringly on blurry guitars and hard drums. Makes you think of Nirvana, Patti Smith or PJ Harvey.

"Make me your Queen"

Besch distinctly makes herself heard with her independent sound and undoubtedly claims her musical place.

Love Me Truly

The Donut of Darkness has started rolling. With menacing shoegaze sounds, raw drums and dark lyrics, Florence Besch sings about the downside of life. She circles around the black icing that can overshadow existence and reminds us that in the end there is a sugary-sweet pastry underneath it.

"I'd like to believe that magic is real"
With "Hibernation", Florence Besch provides the dream grunge answer to a world that is spinning ever faster. The single starts with a menacing bass intro that is reminiscent of tense heartbeats and is punctuated by flashes of electrical interference. We are constantly running after all the trains in this hyper nation. Time to build a timefreezer to finally do the things we love.
"I'd like to believe in time travelling"
With catchy, melodic guitar riffs and driving drums, Florence sings about the desire to be able to stop time. She forms her own style between 90s bands like Nirvana, Patti Smith, dream pop and indie rock. A genre between hard drums and dreamy soft sounds - dream grunge. With "Hibernation", Florence Besch serves up a sensitive and catchy new single.

Hibernation

I’ve been told
Useless words
They don’t help
They make it worse

No, you can’t use me
No, I will go
No, you can’t have it
It’s mine, you fool

I’ve been called 
Endless names
They don’t help
They make it worse

No, you can’t use me
No, I will go
No, you can’t have it
It’s mine, you fool
No, you won’t get me
I won’t let go
No, you won’t have me
I will always say no

No one needs you
It’s though ahah
No one wants you 
It’s rough ahah

No, you can’t use me
I will always say no
No, you won’t get me
I will always say no
No, you won’t have me 
I will always say no

No Compromise

You don’t listen to sad music
You like to dance
At night you can’t fall asleep
Your mind whispers on 

You’re running 
Close to the edge
Facing the abyss 
Of armed regret

You don’t listen to sad music
You like to dance
At night you can’t fall asleep
Your mind whispers on 
At night you can’t fall asleep
Your mind whispers on 

Your mind whispers on
Your mind whispers on

There is no drug, no game, 
To keep you sane
Just go on and feel

Think everything that keeps you from sleeping 
Think everything that keeps you from sleeping
Think everything that keeps you from sleeping
Think everything that keeps you from sleeping
Think everything that keeps you from sleeping

“Dancing down the time up here. Dancing down the time“
Enchanting synth-guitar loops capture the grunge heart in 'Nightsong.' The first song on Florence Besch's new album 'Gathering Hearts,' which will be released on November 8 2024, sounds like the soundtrack to a romantic end-of-the-world scenario. 'Dancing down the time up here,' she sings with a velvety voice - absolutely possible to this song. 'How long will it be?' How long until time is danced away? The chorus sounds like sound-filled infinity loops, intertwined with musically reduced verses featuring vocals and calm drums in the foreground. Besch's 'Nightsong' carries through atmospheric spheres and plays on the danceable ground of contemporary realities.

“I live in the future now“
Florence Besch's song 'Eternal Life' is a catchy dream grunge anthem celebrating love. 'I’m in love with love, all the kinds there are' – it also speaks to the love that comes from taking the 'now' into your own hands. 'We have the Power,' Besch quotes the iconic Patti Smith. The warm lyrics wrap around a vibrant soundscape of synths, indie guitars, and gentle drums. Through enduring love, eternal life has already been unlocked, Florence proclaims. 'Eternal Life' is the spectacular single finale before the new album 'Gathering Hearts' is released on November 8th. An original single that goes down like butter and stays in your ear.

Eternal Life

Softly speaking you are crap
Growing bullshit in your head
Gently put you deeply suck
There is no excuse for that

Tick-Tock 
Tick-Tock 

Mildly voiced you are trash
Only thinking about the cash
Kindly stated you‘re deeply fucked
There is no relief from that

Tick-Tock 
Tick-Tock 

So long suckers, I set my sails, 
Facing life with elegance
Get wrecked fuckers, your course fails,
Into the walls of ignorance
One final supper, no more tales,
One final chance to save your ass
To live the change you seek on Earth

Tick-Tock 
Tick-Tock

Words Of Elegance

I was raised in 
Someone’s world
Told to believe them
But soon I found

I won’t live like they do
Don’t want to be cruel
Not to myself or anyone else
Time is all we have
Time is all we have

You told me 
the world is so strange
Build your own one
To feel safe
I tried to
But I ran out of bricks
I’m an open book now
Putting plasters on cracks
I’m an open book now
Putting plasters on cracks

I won’t live like they do
Don’t want to be cruel
Not to myself or anyone else
Time is all we have
Time is all we have

There is no chosen one
We are all made of bones
A collection of Immortal souls
No one will ever own

I won’t live like they do
Don’t want to be cruel
Not to myself or anyone else
Time is all we have
Time is all we have 
Time is all we have
Time is all we have

In a delicately dosed combination of dirty punk sound and soft pop, Florence Besch creates her very own genre: Dream Grunge.

"Besch has a steady hand for big melodies that are equally suited for singing along and moshing. - Christina Mohr, Visions. 

The Luxembourg-born, Düsseldorf-based indie artist transforms her characteristic fragile honesty into powerful, raw energy on the new LP Gathering Hearts (Unique Records), combining dreamy guitar sounds with strong, sincere lyrics from the universe of loneliness and love. Besch’s music, described as Dream Grunge, blending indie lo-fi with dream pop and grunge elements, explores themes of feminism, emotional independence, and personal freedom. Florence Besch and band toured across clubs in Germany, played festivals like Herzberg Festival, New Fall Festival or Breminale as well as shows at Waves Vienna, Reeperbahn Festival, Crossroads Festival, Strasbourg Music Week and supported Paolo Nutini, Françoiz Breut and The Düsseldorf Düsterboys among others.
