FLORIST Vinilo y CD

Review: Emily Sprague, Rick Spataro and Jonnie Baker are the friends behind the Florists project. It began in Upstate New York when the trio started making weird sounds on synths and guitars. That was almost a decade ago and since then there have been four albums, with this self-titled effort being the fifth. "This is not just my songs with a backing band," Sprague explains. "It's a practice. It's a collaboration. It's our one life." The music ranges from serene and folky to experimental guitar ambient and heavily atmospheric mood pieces coated in dust.
