According to a recent report by The New York Times (nytimes. com), the British R&B trio Flo has been teasing fans with a string of singles since March 2022, starting with the chart-topping hit "Cardboard Box". Despite the group's rapid rise to fame, the trio has kept their debut album on the backburner, opting instead to release a 2022 EP, "The Lead", and a slew of high-profile collaborations with Missy Elliott and Stormzy.
Flo's three members, Jorja Douglas, Renée Downer, and Stella Quaresma, have been touring extensively, honing their skills and connecting with fans worldwide. However, they have been rigorous in their efforts to craft an album that meets their lofty standards. As Downer revealed in a video interview, "We just kept on making music — and we kept on making better music." The trio has now announced the release date for their highly anticipated debut album... "Access All Areas", set to drop on November 15. In a statement, Flo expressed their commitment to establishing a distinct sound, balancing nostalgia with current trends.
"The melodies will always be nostalgic, "because you're a product of your environment,"" Douglas explained. "But we definitely have to be mindful of what's more current at the moment." Flo's unique group dynamic is characterized by the three women's equal participation in lead and harmony vocals... presenting a united front as they present their diverse styles.
"We're all three very strong individuals," Downer noted. "We all want to sing. We all want to have our own moment to showcase our personal style. But yeah, "it really just works itself out."" With "Access All Areas" markably anticipated, Flo fans can look forward to a highly polished and innovative album that showcases the group's musical prowess and commitment to artistic excellence.
Flo's singles kept on coming, but where was a full-fledged album? When all its pop machinery was already in motion, the group dared to put its debut on pause. The initial plan was for the British R⁘B trio to release a full-length album in 2023 after a string of singles that began in March 2022 with "Cardboard Box," a coolheaded, close-harmony kiss-off that has been streamed more than 54 million times on Spotify. After the release of a 2022 EP, "The Lead," and a hyperactive performing schedule that demonstrated their real-time virtuosity , Flo was named best rising star at the 2023 Brit Awards; they went on to release collaborations with Missy Elliott and Stormzy .
