[spoiler="Об исполнителе (группе)"]
Flowered Up - лондонская инди-группа, по стилю близкая к представителям музыкальной волны Мэдчестер конца 80-х - начала 90-х. Flowered Up сравнивают с Happy Mondays. Группа просуществовала недолго, выпустила только один альбом и вскоре распалась из-за проблем с наркотиками у участников группы.

Career

After releasing two singles ("It's On" and "Phobia") on Heavenly Records, Flowered Up signed to London Records and recorded their first (and only) album, A Life With Brian, in 1991.[1] The band resembled bands such as Happy Mondays but, whereas almost similar bands derived from the Manchester area, Flowered Up came from London. The group appeared on the covers of both Sounds and NME before releasing its own albums.[1]

A Life With Brian contained many of their popular live songs, as well as new versions of the previously released singles. However, the album was said by many not to live up to the promise of their live performances.[1] Not long afterwards, Flowered Up released the 13-minute long single "Weekender", on Heavenly.[1] "Weekender" which was released with a video directed by W.I.Z. starring Lee Whitlock and Anna Haigh. The debauchery hinted at in their music was not merely a pose,[citation needed]. After much publicised drug problems with some members of the band, and unproductive (and some unreleased) studio work, the band split up. Keyboard player Tim Dorney went on to form Republica.[1]

A Life With Brian was re-released by London Records as The Best of Flowered Up, and now includes the original version of "Weekender". Flowered Up tried to re-form in 2007, but Dorney refused causing the cancellation of a planned reunion tour.

On 20 October 2009 Liam Maher died of heroin overdose, aged 41. His death was announced later that day.
