Event Information
FLORENCE BLACK are Tristan Thomas (vocals/guitar), Jordan Evans (bass) and Perry Davies (drums), a hard rock trio from Merthyr Tydfil, South Wales.
Since forming in 2012, the band have forged a fiercely independent path, building a loyal following through relentless touring and self released records. Their debut album, *Weight Of The World*, reached No.6 on the Official UK Rock & Metal Albums Chart in 2021 and established the South Wales trio as one of the UK's most exciting modern rock bands.
Over the years, FLORENCE BLACK have shared stages with Stone Sour, Tremonti, Steel Panther, Ugly Kid Joe, Reef, Ginger Wildheart and German rock legends Bohse Onkelz, while performing at some of Europe's biggest festivals including Download, Hellfest, Sweden Rock and Resurrection Fest.
In 2024, the band released their second album, 'Bed Of Nails', which debuted at No.1 on the Official UK Rock & Metal Albums Chart. Singles from the record received support from Planet Rock and BBC Radio 1's Introducing Rock Show, further strengthening the band's reputation as one of Britain's premier hard rock acts.
Renowned for their explosive live performances, FLORENCE BLACK have become a formidable touring force, regularly selling out headline shows across the UK and earning a reputation as one of the hardest working bands on the circuit.
April 2026 saw the release of the band's highly anticipated third album, *Pouring Rain*, marking another milestone in a career built on determination, authenticity and an unwavering commitment to bringing powerful, no nonsense rock music to audiences across the UK and Europe.
With three acclaimed studio albums to their name and an ever growing fanbase, FLORENCE BLACK continue to cement their place as one of the leading lights of British hard rock.
