You already know Flo Gallop. You’ve already heard her voice, it’s a pitch-perfect, beautiful, arm-around-the-shoulders version of the one in your head. Flo is the voice we all need, She’s the beat behind our breakdowns and the word-perfect poetry of our bounce-back pick-ups.

South-east London born and bred, Flo was raised around music, her dad made songwriting feel like breathing. Without it she would choke. So, she sat, scribbling words, diarising an everyday life through the musicality and soul of a natural artist that would eventually emerge, fully formed, as a friend in your ears.

Her latest single “Sorry for you, mate” rings true to the songwriter’s honest and playful storytelling lyricism. Written from the heart, the single speaks of the demise of a relationship and focuses on celebrating the loss of a negative person in your life, rather than mourning it. Flo shares, “I hope the music inspires people to dance and be happy when they’re listening to it. If something is not quite right in their lives or as good as it could be, maybe something as simple as one of my lyrics might inspire them to change it. That would be amazing!”

Shining with an effervescence, the track is reminiscent of “Señorita” by Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes, with a snappy rhythm section that brings to mind the likes of “Uptown Girl” by Billy Joel. Glowing with positivity, Flo makes the best out of a bad situation, always trying to find the silver lining. Bursting with exuberance and an IDGAF attitude “Sorry for you, mate” is the perfect anthem to wash all worries away. 

Flo doesn’t want to change the world, just get your attention. She lives to perform, yet she feels, writes and lives like an antidote to this world of filtered fakery and ‘pick me!’ poses. Honesty is the only policy here, even when it hurts. 

All of Flo’s music is food for the heart and words for the wise. This is a writer of depth, already a collaborator with established giants Tom Fuller and Will Thomson but, rather than stand on their shoulders, she has hands on the wheel. 

Having garnered acclaim from notable publications including Wonderland Magazine, 1883 Magazine, Rolling Stone India and Ones to Watch to name a few, as well as heavy support from the BBC and with almost a quarter of a million streams under her belt, 2022 is set to be a promising year for Flo Gallop.

Her new track Can’t Be Friends is a fun and flirtatious bop that will have you feeling empowered and without a care in the world. With a poetic vibe in her lyrics and funky instrumentals, there’s something pretty magical about Flo.’

Chloe Tucker, POP SINS

‘Singer-songwriter Flo Gallop’s heart-touching new single Chasing After You is a melodic testament of post-break-up clarity. The London-based indie-pop artist’s new song delivers a message of healing and self-love. The intimate track explores the singer’s emotions after a breakup which is reflected in its catchy title. She takes her audience on a journey as the song begins with a stripped-down acoustic sound and escalates to a powerful beat.’

Sarah Rand, METAL MAGAZINE

‘London’s Flo Gallop is the queen of relatable and raw. Her latest single “Chasing After You”, the video for which PopWrapped are delighted to premiere, picks apart the frustration of being besotted by a prince-charming, but realising he’s not all that and not wanting to spend your life chasing after him.’

Rebecca Haslam, POPWRAPPED
