Singer, producer and violinist FLOCO inhabits a world between the old and the new. Weaving remnants of her musical upbringing on English folk music through live electronics and experimental production, FLOCO explores the more abstract lands of Cyberfolk and Dream Pop. Her live shows flit between moments of lyrical intimacy and ethereal transcendence, as FLOCO oversees a range of electronics augmenting her vocals and violin lines. With moments of improvisation, field recordings and freeform electronics, her music is an organic melding of songcraft and space.
