[3] Born in London to a large family with eight siblings, Flo Morrissey discovered an interest in folk music at an early age.

[3] She is the daughter of Helena, Baroness Morrissey, a former CEO of Newton Investment Management, and Richard, a Buddhist monk and former financial journalist.

Deciding upon a career in music, after leaving the BRIT school, she commented, "it has meant that I haven’t met many like-minded people, like I might have if I’d gone to university".

[3] In December 2014, Morrissey released the single "Pages of Gold,"[3] to be followed in June 2015 by the album Tomorrow Will Be Beautiful, produced by Noah Georgeson and Philippe Zdar.

[12] Morrissey is married to British singer-songwriter Benjamin Clementine; the couple had their first child Julian Jupiter Richard Sainte-Clémentine on Florence's birthday, Christmas Day, 2017.
