FLOSSIE THORNE is an emerging solo artist from South West London, performing with her live band and bringing a distinctive, eccentric energy to the stage. Her sound blends shoegaze and pop rock with elements of soul and electronic music, drawing influence from artists such as Alice in Chains, Sofia Isella, and Siouxsie and the Banshees.
A British singer-songwriter, Flossie creates music that is loud, vulnerable, and unapologetically honest. Her lyrics confront themes of patriarchy, political tension, and personal experience, rejecting the idea of “sugar-coated” storytelling for complete transparency. For Flossie, music is a way of revealing the self beyond performance, challenging the idea that public image is more than a façade.
Her upcoming album, 'No Silver Lining', is a collection of what she considers her most powerful work to date. True to its title, the project leans into unfiltered lyricism, embracing discomfort rather than softening it. Rooted in a strong DIY ethos, her artistry extends beyond sound into performance, where she takes on an alternative, puppet-like persona to explore themes of control, identity, and feminism - balancing irony with confrontation.
After performing in previous bands that never fully reflected her music, Flossie Thorne now comes to the stage as a solo artist for the first time. Her live shows prioritise raw energy and emotional intensity, bringing an unrestrained and immersive experience. SXSW will show a sneak peak of her album playing her favourite songs in her set... Definitely not one to miss.
