Husband-and-wife duo Flora Cash produce atmospheric indie folk that emerged from a transatlantic romance. A series of EPs preceded their debut official album, the 2017 release Nothing Lasts Forever (And It's Fine), which contained their breakout alternative single "You're Somebody Else." They opened the new decade by issuing two full-length projects in rapid order: Baby, It's Okay and Our Generation.

The pair first connected in 2012 through an online social sound platform, where a shared musical bond quickly formed and prompted Shpresa Lleshaj to journey from Stockholm to Minneapolis for an in-person meeting with Cole Randall. The two then traveled back to Sweden as a couple and launched Flora Cash without delay. Their opening EP, Mighty Fine, appeared only months afterward, followed the next year by the additional collection of harmonious material titled Made It for You.

After returning to Minneapolis, the couple married and spent their honeymoon in Los Angeles before settling again in Europe during 2014. That same year brought their third EP, I Will Be There. Once they signed with Icons Creating Evil Art, the mini-LP Can Summer Love Last Forever arrived in 2016 and earned two GAFFA award nominations for Swedish Group of the Year and Swedish Breakthrough. They also shared stages with performers including Miss Li and Raleigh Ritchie.

Flora Cash delivered their first proper long-player, the ten-track Nothing Lasts Forever (And It's Fine), in spring 2017, presenting unvarnished reflections on relationships layered over their signature ethereal sound. The project yielded the success "You're Somebody Else," which reached the Top Ten on Billboard's Alternative Songs and Adult Alternative Songs airplay charts. Buoyed by this momentum, the duo joined BEE and El/RCA Records. After a lengthy tour they surfaced again in 2019 with the Press EP, highlighted by the single "They Own This Town." Later that year "Missing Home" surfaced and eventually appeared on the 2020 follow-up Baby, It's Okay, an album that also included "Born in the Slumber" from the Death Stranding: Timefall soundtrack. One year afterward they released another LP, Our Generation. Its singles "Soul Mate" and "Don't You Look at Me That Way" both received orchestral reworkings in 2022.
