So we decided to come to a place where people appreciated raw talent,” she said.įloetry landed in Philadelphia at the perfect time when the heat of Neo-Soul music was bringing a heat wave to the U.S. “In the beginning of our careers it was extremely difficult for us to break into the industry in the UK because the glass ceilings were so low. where they became popular figures in the Neo-Soul movement. By the early 2000s, their music landed them in the U.S. Both Ambrosius and Stewart combined their talents of music and poetry to develop their “Floetry” sound.
The two initially met during their time at a performing arts high school in London. Now after a decade after the release of their last album, Stewart and Ambrosius join together for U.S. “It’s a world that I created and brought me into the present moment.” “Floetry has expanded and it’s a genre,” said Stewart.
