NPR: British trio FLO crossed the pond for its Tiny Desk debut in Washington, D.C. So we got V.I.P. access to Club FLO courtesy of Stella Quaresma, Reneé Downer and Jorja Douglas, complete with disco balls, martinis, a custom marquee and subtle Easter eggs tucked between the shelves for sharp-eyed fans. Still, none of the glam outshines what matters most: their harmonies.

They open with a new take on their debut single, “Cardboard Box,” immediately reminding us of the chemistry that launched them. We witness their sister-like energy as they laugh, banter and dance their way through several songs from the Grammy-nominated album, Access All Areas.

FLO delivers sultry standouts — “AAA” and “On & On” — and shares stories of relationship woes with “Get It Till I’m Gone” and “Shoulda Woulda Coulda.” The trio closes with two unreleased tracks, “Therapy at the Club” and “HaterBooth,” hinting at what’s next. The set makes clear that their next chapter will double down on powerful vocals, sisterhood and a confidence sharpened by a clear understanding of exactly what they’re capable of.
