The Ramona Flowers channel the airtight interplay, undeniable chemistry, and uncontainable energy of four close friends jamming in a room into anthems that are as cinematic as they are catchy. As such, the UK quartet—Steve Bird [vocals], Sam Dyson [guitar], Dave Betts [keys, guitar], and Ed Gallimore [drums]—infuse pop with the personal and tactile touch of live instrumentation, lean songcraft, and lush organic production. In essence, the group ignite a fresh and fiery sound the old-fashioned way.

Since emerging out of Bristol back in 2012, the band have quietly perfected this approach. They’ve engaged audiences with a series of fan favorite releases, including Dismantle and Rebuild [2014], Part Time Spies [2016], and Strangers [2018] as well as the If You Remember EP [2021] and Gotta Get Home EP [2022]. Among numerous anthems, they teamed up with none other than Nile Rodgers on Up All Night, which EARMILK hailed as “a densely packed electro-pop production full of dynamic synth melodies, unabating vocals, stadium-size horn elements, and of course Nile Rodgers’ signature funky guitar strums.”

They’ve also notably shared stages with everyone from Barns Courtney, The Libertines, and Tom Grennan to Muse and Placebo.

In the end, The Ramona Flowers might just be what popular music and culture need.
