British rock band Florence + The Machine has officially partnered with Planned Parenthood for the North American leg of its ongoing “Everybody Scream” tour, giving the nation’s largest abortion provider a platform at concert venues across the country.
Planned Parenthood announced the partnership earlier this month, confirming that more than a dozen of its affiliates will set up tables at multiple tour stops beginning April 8 at the Target Center in Minneapolis. Representatives will engage concertgoers about what the organization describes as “sexual and reproductive care.”
Singer Florence Welch issued a statement in support of the partnership, calling Planned Parenthood “a lifeline for millions of people” and framing the collaboration as a response to what she characterized as an “uncertain” moment for reproductive rights.
Florence + The Machine joins a growing list of music industry figures who have aligned themselves with Planned Parenthood, including Olivia Rodrigo, Gracie Abrams, Harry Styles, Megan Thee Stallion, Stevie Nicks, and Cyndi Lauper. The organization’s most recent annual report revealed it performed a record 434,450 abortions in 2023-2024.
The timing is no coincidence. With the Trump administration rolling back federal funding and regulatory protections for abortion providers, Planned Parenthood is aggressively turning to pop culture to recruit supporters and normalize its brand among younger audiences.
Using a concert venue to funnel fans toward an abortion provider — packaging it alongside the music they love — is a calculated influence campaign, not a public health initiative. Planned Parenthood aborted more than 434,000 unborn children in a single year. That is a pro-death agenda, and the music industry is happy to sell tickets to it.
