Blige, Jill Scott, Lionel Richie, Janelle Monae and many more taking the stages, so get into who will be rocking the Mercedes-Benz Superdome this year…is it anybody that you want to see? Last year’s festival brought some huge names in music, with the likes of Prince, Mary J. This year, a lot of usual festival goers were up in the air about whether or not they wanted to go to “the party with a purpose” simply because the organizers were dragging their feet with announcing not only who the headliners would be, but who would be performing PERIOD! That’s right, one of the biggest national musical events, the annual Essence Music Festival, slated for July 2nd – 5th, has recently released who will be headlining their concert series. Tickets from It’s that time again to find out who exactly will be taking over NOLA this 4th of July weekend.

Floetry, Jhene Aiko, BJ The Chicago Kid, Eric Benet, Talib Kweli, and Dwele help round out a list of people who will be set to take the stage, with this just being the first round of announced performers.
Blige, Jill Scott, Charlie Wilson and De La Soul to lead the pack for the more established artist, but that’s not all that they have.
MARSHA AMBROSIUS TOUR DATES 2016 SERIES
SoulFest 2015 just recently announced their headliners for the series of concerts to trek across the continent. The Commonwealth of Australia is often known for its koala bears, kangaroos, and the Outback (no, not the steakhouse, but the geographical location) but during the month of October, it will be known for something a little different, more namely soul. Dubbed as the country’s only annual hip hop and neo-soul festival, Soulfest is coming back to Australia for its 2nd year with a lineup that is bound to get any hip hop head into a fan-girl frenzy.
8 – Columbia, MD., Merriweather Post Pavilion 17 – Philadelphia, PA., Theatre of Living Arts 12 – Durham, NC., DPAC – Durham Performing Arts Center 5 – New Orleans, LA., Mercedes-Benz Superdome (Essence Festival) 25 – San Francisco, CA., The Regency Ballroom 21 – Hammond, IN., The Venue Horseshoe Casino 20 – Detroit, MI., Chene Park Amphitheatre 17 – Cleveland, OH., Hard Rock Casino Northfield Park Check the dates of shows below, which may not all have a set venue as of yet, with more dates to hopefully be added, so stay locked here for all the latest information. No official press release has been made, but we have noticed that tickets for selected shows have been going on sale, as well as Concert Daily getting a hold of a “non finalized” list of dates and Marsha has made comments about the tour being real. Now at last, we can put the rumors to bed!įloetry WILL be venturing on a Summer 2015 tour to span the United States. After that moment happened, fans started to speculate and the two members started to tease a 2015 “Reunion Tour”. That dry feeling lasted until December 2014 when Stewart came out on stage during Ambrosius’ concert and performed “Floetic” at The Clapham Grand in London. All seemed well in the house of floetic, until the group went through a few lineup changes, and then abruptly disbanded in 2007, leaving fans high and dry. One of the mainstay acts that we turned to for such tunes throughout the 2000’s was British neo-soul group Floetry, comprised of Marsha Ambrosius (“the Songstress”) and Natalie Stewart (“the Floacist”), who gave us songs that we loved such as “Say Yes” and “Getting Late”. In this day and age where “instant popcorn” music is all the rage, we have lost touch with artist and music who have given us more than just an instant hit and music that lacks true meaning and soul.
