Florence Road would like you to know 'Rabbits Can Swim' ahead of their North American tour dates
The song is lifted from the band's forthcoming EP 'Spring Forward', which arrives on 27th March.
Dork faves, former cover stars and Hype List 2026 alumni Florence Road have put out a new track, 'Rabbits Can Swim'. The song is lifted from the band's forthcoming EP 'Spring Forward', which arrives on 27th March.
Comprising childhood friends Lily Aron (vocals), Emma Brandon (guitar), Ailbhe Barry (bass) and Hannah Kelly (drums), the group honed their early sound together in a garden shed in Bray, Ireland, drawing on influences ranging from The Cranberries to Wolf Alice and Phoebe Bridgers. After initially gaining traction through posting covers online, Florence Road went on to release their debut mixtape 'Fall Back'.
Over the past year, the band have built significant momentum. A sold-out first UK and Ireland headline tour was accompanied by support slots with Olivia Rodrigo, Wallows, Royel Otis, sombr and Wolf Alice, along with appearances at SXSW London and The Great Escape. Recognition has followed too, from us. And some other people. But clearly, only the Dork stamp of approval counts.
Looking ahead, Florence Road are preparing to open for The Last Dinner Party across select North American shows, with a packed schedule of headline and support dates running well into the summer months.
