Indie music lovers take note: Mallard Cafe, the debut EP from Milwaukee’s very own Floryence, is a masterclass in raw authenticity, creative flair, and genre-bending brilliance.
Review Indie
In a music world often flooded with overproduction and superficial gloss, Floryence—the Milwaukee-based one-man project helmed by the inimitable Jared Gibson—offers a rare breath of raw, unfiltered creativity.
Coyote Music
"Ducks" follows with a Go-Gos meets B-52s quirkiness--driving drums and catchy lyrics that open up into a major chord sing-a-long chorus. The musicianship is exactly what you'd want from an indie band singing a song called "Ducks."
Milwaukee Record
please enjoy the song “Ducks,” from Milwaukee musician Jared Gibson, a.k.a. Floryence. It’s from the 2024 EP Mallard Cafe. It involves ducks. It’s funny, catchy as hell, charming as hell, and really good. The chorus (“You won’t miss me tonight”) is forever stuck in our heads. We love it.
Bandcamp Diaries
Floryence is back with a brand new studio EP titled Mallard Cafe. This release features five tracks, exploring a broad range of influences while maintaining a driven garage rock sound with a DIY feel that adds to the grit and authenticity of the songs.
Dancing Above Architecture
It is amazing how much musical ground Floryence can cover in just the four songs found here. And, of course, the art of doing so is to get the balance right, the balance between being adventurous and yet not too wayward that the songs don’t sit together cohesively.
Skope
Milwaukee-based one-man-band artist Jared Gibson is set to make waves this year with Mallard Cafe, his debut EP under the pseudonym Floryence. This 5-track collection is a delightful mix of indie rock bangers that explore the themes of heartbreak, yearning and emotional turmoil.
