Concert / Indie & Folk Florist

Support: Anna Mieke

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.”

Anna Mieke’s deft songwriting and enveloping compositions have asserted her as a vital voice amongst Ireland’s alt-folk genre. The Irish multi-instrumentalist and songwriter toes the line between folk forms and vivid dreamscapes, drawing on traditional and contemporary motifs. The lyrically ornate and instrumental delicacy of her work, alongside flowing atmospheric arrangements, contributes a challenging, emphatic and new voice to alt-folk.
