Following the UK and European leg, the seven-week U.S. “Access All Areas” Tour kicks off on April 9 in Austin, TX at Emo’s Austin, rolls through major markets coast to coast, and concludes with a massive show on May 22 in Los Angeles, CA at Hollywood Palladium.
In addition, fresh from supporting Kehlani on their Crash World Tour, which saw FLO play arenas across North America, FLO will launch their 2025 Access All Areas UK and Europe tour. Kicking off in Copenhagen on March 2nd, the tour marks their biggest to date and will see them play shows in Paris, Stockholm and the UK, including a headline show at London’s O2 Academy Brixton. Full dates and ticket information can be found here.
Meanwhile, Access All Areas and the mini-deluxe of the album Access All Areas: Unlocked has enraptured audiences and tastemakers alike. Stereogum spotlighted the title track “Access All Areas,” going on to proclaim, “the vibe is brisk and bright, with lots of punchy rhythmic stabs and musical bomb-drop moments.” The New York Times applauded how “On the British R&B trio’s awaited debut album, “Access All Areas,” nostalgia meets ambition.” DIY noted, “With MNEK onboard as executive producer, ‘Access All Areas’ promises to richly combine elements of R&B and soul with modern pop production and relatable lyricism for a collection of tracks that express FLO’s experiences of love and life as young Black women.” Perhaps, DORK put it best, “Their music speaks to universal themes while remaining uniquely theirs, filtered through the experiences of three young Black women navigating the complexities of the 2020s with harmony, humour, and enough talent to make the 90s jealous.” Simultaneously, the LP has already reeled in tens of millions of streams and counting.
It’s just the beginning though.
FLO’s debut album is a bold statement that cements their arrival with unapologetic confidence. Executive produced by MNEK, the album effortlessly blends rich tones of R&B and soul with pitched up original samples and futuristic production to create a sound that is both nostalgic and forward thinking. With contagious hooks, stunning harmonies and candid, relatable lyricism, Access All Areas serves as a manifesto for the group, highlighting their no-holds-barred approach to songwriting and life. The album delves deep into the themes of love, sisterhood and navigating life as three young Black women, offering fans an intimate glimpse into their experiences.
Speaking about their debut album FLO said: “Access All Areas is a labour of love. To us it represents our growth and dedication to making girl group history, to making a project we are truly proud to call our debut album.”
Access All Areas marks FLO’s first project since 2023’s surprise fan EP 3 of Us and 2022’s debut EP The Lead. It continues to build on the success of the past couple years, which has seen them become the first group to ever win both the BRITs Rising Star Award and the BBC Sound Poll in the same year. The group have since gone on to earn endorsements from the likes of Megan Thee Stallion, SZA, Victoria Monet, Kelly Rowland, Ariana Grande, and more. The album follows a stellar run of singles including “Walk Like This,” “Caught Up,” “Check” and most recent single, “Bending My Rules.”
Speaking about the tour, FLO said: “We are so excited to get back on the road for our very own album tour! There’s nothing we love more than connecting with our fans. We LOVE this body of work and can’t wait to share this music and sing along with our flolifers”
