British R&B trio FLO have joined forces with Grammy-winning producer Kaytranada for their latest single, “The Mood” — a smooth, confident anthem that blends sensuality and self-assurance over Kaytranada’s signature bounce. Released via Island Records, the track lands just in time for summer, bringing heat to both the dancefloor and the headphones.
Built on a hypnotic groove, “The Mood” leans into themes of modern intimacy with a playful twist. FLO’s signature harmonies glide effortlessly over lush, futuristic production, resulting in a sound that feels sleek, bold, and effortlessly cool.
Reflecting on the track, FLO shared:
“The Mood is a fun and fresh take on sex. Sometimes you’re just not in the mood! We made this song two years ago and it still feels brand new to us. We’re so honoured to have worked with Kaytranada, and we’re thrilled that the world finally gets to enjoy it with us. #permissionissexy”
Kaytranada’s production creates the perfect foundation — sensual yet crisp — allowing FLO to explore vulnerability and empowerment with equal finesse. It’s a collaboration that feels as natural as it is electric.
“The Mood” follows the breakout success of FLO’s debut album Access All Areas, which made history as the highest-charting album by a British R&B girl group in over 20 years. Peaking at No. 3 on the UK Albums Chart and earning praise from Pitchfork, The Times, and NME, the trio cemented their place as torchbearers of a new R&B era.
Now, with a headline UK tour kicking off September 28 at London’s O2 Brixton Academy, and a sold-out run ahead, FLO shows no signs of slowing down. “The Mood” is just the latest reminder: this group knows exactly who they are — and how to make you feel it.
