Floetry don't fit into the R&B and soul bracket as their music is more than just a category. Both English girls - one from South London and the other from Liverpool - couldn't get a record deal in the UK, but made it big in the States. Natalie's smooth, eloquent rhymes compliment Marsha's soulful soprano vocals. I was fortunate to see them live at the Jazz Cafe in Camden, North London on Saturday and it was one of the best concerts I've been to in a long time. Normally the artists ego is the problem at concerts. Instead of trying to entertain their audiences their too busy trying to impress them with their Royal Ballet/Alvin Ailey dancers, soprano backing singers and ludicrous stage effects not to mention expensive ticket prices. Floetry did none of the above, instead they entertained their audience with just themselves and their live jazz band. They respected their audience by speaking to them rather than at them and didn't just recite songs from their albums, they did cover versions varying from rock, soul and pop spanning from the 80's to today and they closed their concert with the theme tune from Cheers. I would definitely recommend their CD so that people can experience the wonderful world of Floetry.
