FLO Talks Coachella Performance and Upcoming Debut Album: ‘We Want to Be the Face of the Resurgence of Girl Groups’

Selena Kuznikov Over the past few years, FLO has done what many assumed was undoable in today’s music climate: revived the concept of the R&B girl group by updating the sound of its ’90s heyday, all with a contemporary twist. So far, it’s worked – as their fan base has exploded beyond their native London and brought them to viral new heights. “We definitely want to be the face of the resurgence of girl groups,” says Jorja Douglas, who makes up the trio alongside Stella Quaresma and Renée Downer.

Coachella Livestream: How to Watch Bad Bunny, Frank Ocean, Blackpink and Other Sets Online
McKinley Franklin editor The Coachella livestream on YouTube is the next-best thing to being there, and in some ways it’s even better: There’s no crowds, travel, heat or dust unless you want them, and you’ve got the best seat in the house.  This Friday, the 22nd edition of Coachella will kick off with the first of two weekends at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, Calif. With fans anticipating a star-studded list of headliners like Bad Bunny, Blackpink and Frank Ocean, this year’s festival is the first that notably consists of a lineup of over 50% international artists.  As in other recent years, Coachella 2023 will be available to stream online via its official YouTube channel on the first weekend — and the good news is that this marks the full time the second weekend will also have just an extensive slate of streaming instead of just select highlights. Livestreams are accessible on desktop, mobile or the YouTube app via Coachella’s official YouTube page. For the first time, six of the stages from the festival — instead of the usual three — will be accessible for streaming, starting April 14 at 4 p.m. PT (and continuing on April 21 at the same time for the festival’s second weekend). Following each day of festivities, Coachella’s YouTube will rerun video performances from the day prior.

Between 2019-2020 and 2020-2021, the number of pubs, bars and clubs in the UK dropped, continuing a trend that has seen businesses in the sector shutting in high numbers for a decade.According to the ONS, there were 10,040 registered clubs in the UK in 2010.
