Friday Flash(back)... Back after the long weekend

As its long weekend eve, the Friday Flash(back) is taking a small break ahead of the final month of Friday Flash(back)'s for 2026.

I'll give you a clue of who I am thinking of for the return.

Have a great long weekend. Sadly Silverchair will not be playing the NRL grand final. How good would that have been!!!

With less music festivals on the menu, this is one of the best of the best. Slayyyter was an act I saw years ago at Groovin the Moo. I never knew she would be one of the biggest stars in 2026. So proud of Coastie, Ninajirachi. Maybe she can play the NRL grand final on the weekend.

Also welcome newcomer, KGBBBBBBB Adela.

Estrus is the sixth studio album by the Swedish singer Tove Lo. Released last Friday, through her independent record label, Pretty Swede Records.

Lo announced her sixth studio album, Estrus, on 11 May 2026, sharing its cover artwork and track listing. Same day, she also unveiled its lead single, I'm Your Girl Right?. Released on 13 May along with its Nogari-directed music video that was filmed in São Paulo with 70 dancers.

In support of the album, she will embark on its accompanying tour, which is set to began on September 15 in Nashville at the Pinnacle and conclude on November 19 at Avicii Arena. Mallrat (North America), Rose Gray (UK and Europe), and Cobrah (Brooklyn) will serve as a supporting act of the tour.

A bit more about this week's Friday Flash(back). Ebba Tove Elsa Nilsson (Swedish: [ˈɛbːa ˈtuːvɛ ˈɛlsa ˈnɪlsɔn], known professionally as Tove Lo (/ˈtoʊvə ˈloʊ/ TOH-və LOH;[1] Swedish: [ˈtûːvɛ ˈluː]), is a Swedish singer-songwriter. 

She is known for her raw, grunge-influenced take on pop music. Referring to her autobiographical lyrics, Out called Lo "the saddest girl in Sweden", while Rolling Stone called her "Sweden's darkest pop export".

Raised in the Djursholm district of Danderyd, Lo is an alumna of the music school Rytmus Musikergymnasiet. She formed the rock band Tremblebee in 2006. After it disbanded, Lo pursued a career in songwriting and earned a publishing deal with Warner/Chappell Music in 2011. Working with producers Alexander Kronlund, Max Martin, and Xenomania, she became a successful songwriter, while also recording and releasing her own compositions independently.

In 2013, Lo was signed to Universal Music, Island and Polydor. The following year, Lo rose to prominence with her debut album, Queen of the Clouds, which opened at number 14 on the US Billboard 200 chart in October 2014. It spawned the sleeper hit single Habits (Stay High), which peaked at number three on the US Billboard Hot 100, as well as Talking Body. 

Her second album, Lady Wood, was released in October 2016 and debuted at number 11 on the Billboard 200. Its lead single, Cool Girl, became an international hit. 

Her follow-up records, Blue Lips (2017) and Sunshine Kitty (2019), also performed well, the latter spawning the song Glad He's Gone, which was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Music Video. In 2022, she released the album Dirt Femme with singles like How Long & No One Dies from Love. The former was part of the soundtrack for the second season of the American teen drama series Euphoria. 

In addition to her solo work, Lo has co-written songs for other artists, including Lorde's Homemade Dynamite (2017) and Ellie Goulding's Love Me Like You Do (2015), a song that garnered her Grammy Award and Golden Globe nominations. 

She has collaborated with many artists, including Alesso, Broods, Charli XCX, Coldplay, Flume, Nelly Furtado, Martin Garrix, Nick Jonas, Wiz Khalifa, Kylie Minogue, Seven Lions and Urban Cone. 

Today's pick for me on the new record, Roomie. I like to party! Happy Friday.
