First Floor Power is an indie rock band from Sweden.[2] FFP recorded and released their debut EP We Are the People in 2000 on the Swedish label Silence Records. In 2001 their debut album There is Hope was released. Swedish National TV produced a one-hour documentary about the band which focused on the struggle and attempts of the band in its early career. Their sound has been described as a combination of afrobeat and 70s pop music.[3] The band was listed in the "ten albums of the year" in Time Out Magazine.[citation needed]
Jenny Wilson left the band to pursue a solo career after the band's second album.[4]
