Floral Couches is the moniker for indie pop artist Cody Gray. Previously known for his lo-fi dreamy soundscapes and synth filled music, Cody continues his exploration of jazz, motown, and soul inspired music returning with a new sultry sound that transports you into a musical void that you won’t want to climb out of. Drawing inspiration from their soul and Motown influences, he infuses his music with a unique blend of nostalgia and modern sensibilities.
Hailing from the north side of Chicago, Floral Couches' musical journey began amidst the eclectic vibes of the city. After the breakup of his previous band, Young Adult, Cody found his own voice while performing all over the city, eventually opening up for acts Sam Evian, Sen Morimoto, and Late Nite Laundry which profoundly shaped his distinctive style.
Floral Couches' music is a poignant journey through the intricacies of human emotion, weaving together themes of love, nostalgia, self-discovery, and bitter reality. His lyrics are a poetic exploration of the human experience, often delving into topics such as the fleeting nature of time and the beauty of everyday moments. His new sound, a fusion of shimmering guitars, luscious horns and flutes, mesmerizing synths, Rhodes keys, and soulful vocals, will both sonically and emotionally treat you.
Floral Couches is gearing up for an exciting release in 2024 with their upcoming album, "Xtra Mild." This upcoming album promises to be a soulful and nostalgic sonic journey, offering listeners an immersive experience that pays homage to their Motown and soul influences. Be sure to stay tuned for "Xtra Mild" and follow Floral Couches on Spotify to be the first to experience this musical masterpiece.
