Background

[edit]

On 30 March 2023, Flo embarked on tour in support of The Lead (2022). During the London concert of the Flo Live tour, they performed "Control Freak" for the first time.[4] On 3 July, Flo announced the EP on their Instagram and made two previously unreleased tracks along with the title track on all streaming platforms.[3][5]

A gift to the FLO Lifers who have been waiting so patiently for new music, we hope this will keep you fed whilst we finish off the album. Made with love.
