On a buzzing night in Houston, rising British R&B trio FLO proved why they’re one of the most exciting acts of the new generation. Performing for a packed crowd, the group — made up of Renée Downer, Jorja Douglas, and Stella Quaresma — brought style, goddess vocals, and energy to the stage during their highly anticipated Access All Areas tour.
Since their formation in 2019, FLO has been steadily building momentum with hits like “Cardboard Box,” “Immature,” and their recent standout singles “Walk Like This” and “Caught Up.” Guided by the legendary MNEK and drawing influence from ’90s and early 2000s R&B icons like Destiny’s Child and TLC, FLO has crafted a sound that’s both nostalgic and fresh. Their Houston performance solidified that they’re not just riding a wave — they’re here to stay.
Taking the stage in tailored red leather outfits that gave a nod to classic girl group glamour while remaining modern and bold, FLO immediately set the tone with the commanding opener “AAA.” From there, they launched into crowd favorites like “Walk Like This,” “Check,” and the high-energy anthem “Fly Girl,” featuring a swaggering nod to Missy Elliott’s iconic “Work It.”
Vocally, FLO delivered on all fronts. The harmonies were tight, the solos were goosebump-inducing, and their stage chemistry was effortless. Highlights of the night included the sultry “Bending My Rules,” the infectious “Caught Up,” and the emotional weight of “Losing You,” where their voices soared with raw, heartfelt delivery.
The setlist also featured well-placed interludes like “The Pact” and “Trustworthy,” allowing the show to flow like a story, weaving between upbeat anthems and tender ballads. “Soft” and “On & On” showcased their smoother, more vulnerable side, while tracks like “In My Bag” kept the crowd moving.
By the time FLO performed their breakout hit “Cardboard Box,” the audience was singing every word back to them. As a surprise encore, they treated fans to a powerful performance of “I’m Just A Girl,” showing off not only their incredible vocal range to end the night just right.
Houston showed FLO love — and if tonight was any indication, FLO is ready to take the world by storm now more than ever.
