Black Market Flowers was a Los Angeles-based rock trio that existed in the early to mid 1990s.

Overview

Black Market Flowers played occasional gigs with Weezer during their early club days, and also befriended Mykel and Carli Allan. In fact, they were the first to write and record a song called "Mykel and Carli" - just weeks before Rivers Cuomo penned his "Mykel & Carli". The band is currently defunct. Both their studio albums, Bind and Thicket were rereleased in 2010 although only available digitally.

The Black Market Flowers song about the Allan sisters later appeared on the 1997 Vast Records compilation Hear You Me! A Tribute To Mykel And Carli.
