Florist began as the friendship project of Emily Sprague, Rick Spataro, and Jonnie Baker in Upstate, NY. The three started making weird sounds on synths and guitars together as a way to relate, and grew close. They were later joined by drummer Felix.
Their fourth full-length album, Florist, feels like the culmination of a decade-long journey, the first record deserving of a self-titled designation. As Sprague explains: “It’s a practice. It’s a collaboration. It’s our one life.”
