Floetry Go With the "Flo"

British soul duo to release second album in July

Floetry will release their second album, Flo'ology, in July. The album is the London soul duo's follow-up to 2002's critically acclaimed Floetic.

"This entire album -- we've put in the kitchen sink, our elbow, our ankle, the whole thing," says Natalie Stewart, who creates the funky tracks with Marsha Ambrosius. Together, the two have written tracks for artists such as Michael Jackson and Jill Scott. Produced in part by Raphael Saadiq, the new record includes the titles "Closer," "Freely" and "I Die."

Once Flo'ology drops, the divas are anxious to get back on the road. "We're excited about playing all of the album live," says Stewart, "because live brings a whole different realm. We live on the road."

This Wednesday, Floetry will perform at Philadelphia's Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts as part of a concert in honor of singer-songwriter John Whitehead (the O'Jays, Lou Rawls). The women also recently taped an episode of HBO's Def Poetry Jam.
