FLO Open Up About Sophomore Album 'Therapy at the Club,' Out August 7

British R&B group FLO have shared new details about their sophomore album, Therapy at the Club, in a video interview published by Billboard. The 16-track record is set for release on 7 August, two weeks after its original 24 July date, which the group postponed in late May.

FLO — Jorja Douglas, Stella Quaresma and Renée Downer — told Billboard that the making of this album taught them to speak up in the studio. Billboard

"We've learned to trust our instincts and advocate for what we want," the group said, a shift Quaresma said left them "in a much better place creatively." Downer described the album as "definitely feels more grown" and "very honest and more real."

The album follows FLO's debut, Access All Areas, which earned the group a Grammy nomination for Best Progressive R&B Album. Therapy at the Club builds on three tracks already released — "Leak It," "Don't Break Her Heart," and the title track — with new songs including "Floating," "Cry Ugly," "HaterBooth," "Miss U Missing Me," and "Small Doses."

The group also admitted they had not been "100% happy" with some of their previous music videos. For "Leak It," FLO said they prioritised making the video "a big moment and a big video" to better match what they felt the song deserved.

FLO's official store is offering Therapy at the Club across multiple physical formats — vinyl, CD, and cassette — including a "Midnight Blue Edition" LP, a signed LP, a "Disco Ball Picture Disc" variant, and member-specific CD editions for Jorja, Renée, and Stella. The store's description of the album states it "reimagines the club not just as a place of nightlife, but as a site of confession, release and self-possession."

For fans, the new album promises a more direct and self-assured FLO — a trio that has already proven it can earn industry recognition, now pushing for creative control on its own terms.
