Strangely enough for a music duo who debuted so young, Marsha Ambrosius and Natalie Stewart first bonded over their shared love of basketball while they were studying together at the BRIT School in Croydon. While Ambrisious was musical, she wasn’t even studying a performing art the way that Stewart was, but the two young women kept in touch even after they left for university. Stewart went on to form a performance poetry group called 3 Plus 1 while Ambrosius began writing songs prolifically, and in 1999, they collaborated on a song called “Fantasize”. The fledgling duo were so proud with their efforts that Ambrosius joined 3 Plus 1 to perform its live debut with them, and soon afterwards Stewart and Ambrosius decided to collaborate more, forming a band together that they called Floetry.
However, the band saw no future for them in the U.K, so in 2000 the duo moved to the United States to perform on the poetry circuit there. They settled down in Philadelphia to begin writing and recording demos together, and in 2002 they signed a record deal with Dreamworks Records to release their debut album “Floetic” in the same year. Right off the bat they were critically acclaimed and found a sizeable following thanks to their live shows, but the duo wouldn’t find commercial success until the 2005 release of their second album “Flo’Ology”. Even though it stormed into the Billboard charts at number 7, it still couldn’t stop the band parting ways the following year. After succesful solo careers for both members, the band got back together at the end of 2014 during a solo concert of Ambrosius’, and have announced a string of tour dates for 2015. For being one of the best songwriting acts of the neo-soul style, Floetry come highly recommended.

When i heard about the uk dates i bought the tickets straight away.
Floetry introduced me to neo-soul and my current partner introduced me to floetry. We are both musical people he produces and im an performance arts producer and floetry have inspired us both in our work, in our passions and our friend/relationship.
This concert was like no other...these ladies have done what i dream to produce in a concert. They got over a 1000 people to sing their chorus with them however apart from just a sing a long they gave the crowd spiritual upliftment.
Floetry could sing about anything they could influence millions and this they speak the truth...they give knowledge and inspire people to look inside themselves and enhance their loves and their spirits through music and through song and through participation.
I have grown up with floetry and their inspiration continues to journey with me. I fully recommend that if you haven't experienced a floetry concert yet you definitely need to.

Neo soul is really making waves in the music world these days. Lets discuss Floetry, the five time Grammy Award nominated English R&B duo who have sold 1.5 million records worldwide. They have been going since 1997. There is something different about Floetry, which has made them stand out from the crowd over the years. They both attended the Brits Performing Arts School. Both fantastic athletes, they aimed for Georgia Tech University on a basketball scholarship, but unfortunately due to an injury, this couldn’t be possible. Back to the music, this band is due to perform works from both of their studio albums, “Floetic” and “Flo’Ology” which went to 4 and 2 in the US R&B chart, the gathering is buzzing in anticipation. Looks like it will be a very enjoyable evening. The slow jams of “Floetic” are what take shape as the duo walk onto the stage and launch into these songs complete with huge hooks. They have such a back and forth onstage and such a vibe with the audience.

This concert was off the meter! First Case performed, that brought back good memories. Case is still Case, I liked his set. Floetry performed like they were never separated. Natalie and Marsha had a chance to do their own set, but them together was amazing. I'm just waiting for another Floetry album. Great job from all artist.

AWESOME!!!!! It was like the never missed a beat despite being apart for nearly a decade.
The power to the keyboard and guitar went out and they kept going like it was a part of the show. SOOOO glad they are back together and I was able to experience this show... well done ladies.

One of the best concerts I have been to yet. Loved everything about the show. Wish it could have been longer. They really engaged the crowd and made it feel like family. Will see them again if they come back to Orlando.

Amazing! They put on a awesome show! No air in the venue but still a great kick!! I would certainly go see them again!! I love how each one separately did their thing and then collectively they tore it up.
