Florence Road are back, and they're swinging hard. The young Irish crew dropped the one-off "7563" in August, then ran a North American tour that nearly got derailed when someone broke into their van in LA and swiped their gear. They finished the run anyway. Supporters like Eddie Vedder lent them equipment, which is the kind of moment that tells you a band is building something real.
Now comes "Wish Upon You," a sharp, exuberant ripper that keeps Lily Aron's huge, expressive voice front and center. That's always been their anchor. But the best bit here is the full-band harmony that cracks into a scream right before the chorus. It's a killer touch.
These four have been growing fast, and every release feels like another step up the ladder. The energy, the hooks, the fearless vocal swings: it all points forward.
A stolen van couldn't stop them. This belter proves exactly why.
