Blossoms, an English indie pop band formed in 2013, have carved a distinctive niche in the music scene with their retro-infused melodies and lyrical storytelling. Hailing from Stockport, a town near Manchester, the group consists of Tom Ogden (lead vocals, guitar), Charlie Salt (bass, backing vocals), Josh Dewhurst (lead guitar, percussion), Joe Donovan (drums), and Myles Kellock (keyboards, backing vocals). Blossoms quickly gained traction in the vibrant British music landscape, landing a spot on the BBC Sound of 2016 list and releasing their self-titled debut album in the same year to critical acclaim. The album, which went to number one on the UK Albums Chart, showcased their knack for catchy pop hooks blended with a touch of 60s and 70s musical influences.

They have since continued to build their reputation for energetic live performances and an engaging indie-pop sound. Albums like "Foolish Loving Spaces" and the expansive project "Ribbon Around The Bomb" have solidified their presence, exhibiting growth in their songwriting and stylistic range. The band's willingness to experiment with their sound is evident in the various editions of these albums, which sometimes include live renditions showcasing their prowess on stage, as seen in the "Live At Sefton Park" release. Their catalogue comprised of studio works, deluxe editions, and intimate in-isolation recordings reveals a group confidently easing into maturity while retaining the vivacious spirit that first brought them into the spotlight.
