Florist’s music occupies a gently transcendent space and conveys a quiet majesty. Via intricate ambient folk and lo-fi bedroom-pop the band, helmed by Emily Sprague, captures the enchantment of nature and a wistful joy in existence.
In titling their latest album Florist, the four-piece solidifies the collaboration at the core of this project – highlighting the foundations of friendship these musicians are united by. This is also tangible in the music itself, with a striking sonic synergy weaving together glistening melodies, lilting percussion and soft, poetic vocals.
