Liana Flores is an Anglo-Brazilian singer-songwriter based in London, influenced by Bossa Nova, 60s British folk, and Romantic poets, evocative of artists from Nick Drake and Astrud Gilberto to contemporaries like Laufey and Faye Webster. With her music, Liana aims to open a window into the sublime of the everyday, simplicity, emotional directness, and the rhythms of the seasons, inviting each listener into what she describes as a "fantasy realm."
Liana now appears with her debut album Flower of the Soul, a collection of 11 vignette tracks that illustrate coexisting playfulness and sincerity, the suggestion of the ephemeral; the consonance of soul and soil as well. Throughout the album, love wanders from the romantic to the eco-spiritual on tracks like "Nightvisions," through the Bossa-inspired "I wish for the rain" and saudade "Now and then," before finding a moment of clarity with "Butterflies (ft. Tim Bernardes)."
