Florence Road is an Irish rock band formed in Bray, County Wicklow in 2019. The group consists of Lily Aron, Emma Brandon, Ailbhe Barry, and Hannah Kelly. They gained recognition in 2025 following the release of their single, "Heavy". The band signed to Warner Records and Warner Chappell Music.
Florence Road was formed by four childhood friends in Bray, County Wicklow. The members began writing and performing music together in a garden shed and initially attracted attention through fisheye-lens performance videos shared on social media. [1]
In March 2025, the band released their single "Heavy", co-written with Marshall Vore and John Hill. [2] The track received favorable reviews and a notable endorsement from American singer Olivia Rodrigo, increasing its streaming popularity.
Their second single, "Caterpillar", produced by Dan Nigro, followed in April 2025. It was praised for its acoustic instrumentation and its lyrical exploration of anxiety and personal transformation. [3]
In June 2025, Florence Road released their debut EP, Fall Back , preceded by the single "Figure It Out". [4] [3]
Shortly after completing secondary school, Florence Road signed a publishing deal with Warner Chappell Music and a recording contract with Warner Records. [5]
