As an artist flo's style is irrepressibly funky, dynamic, intoxicatingly

fresh and is in essence what makes his energy, lyrics and music stand out in

a crowd.



Born and raised in Barbados, his early life was spent in a variety of

vibrant and lively cities, including New York, Toronto, Manchester, Harare

and most recently London.

As an artist flo's expression is original, having grown from his roots in

old school hip hop and budding into a distinct and wider style that is

constantly evolving within the very different genres of music he has

explored. Preferring never to adhere to the stereotypical or expected. Flo

enjoys surprising and taking new routes into the unexplored corners of his

own and his collaborators experience.
