The rising stars say making their second album, Therapy at the Club, was a "crash course" in music.

FLO won Best R&B/Soul Act at the 2026 MOBO Awards and received their first Grammy nomination this year "It's kind of been like a bit of a crash course in making music," says Stella Quaresma of making FLO's second album, Therapy at the Club. After entering the music industry as teenagers, the British girl band say they grew to trust their own instincts during six months making their new record. Formed of Quaresma, Jorja Douglas and Renée Downer, they first broke through in 2022 with the track Cardboard Box and have since won Best R&B/Soul Act at the 2026 MOBO Awards. The group have more than five million monthly Spotify listeners, 1.2 million TikTok followers and almost 58 million likes on the platform. The campaign around their second album has included a NPR Tiny Desk performance viewed over a million times and appearances on high-profile US podcasts, helping reintroduce them stateside. For their latest album, the group say they became more involved than ever before in every stage of the album's creation, from songwriting and vocal arrangements to production decisions. "Sometimes you walk away from a session and people are surprised that you contributed, that you had ideas," says Douglas.
