Soulman Delaware Floyd Tonight

He is a crowd favorite, and he never fails to get everyone up and dancing. Delaware Floyd is part of the Boston Soul Revue .
"Classic 60's Soul + R&B + Motown + 70's Dance/Funk + The James Brown Songbook + Jazz/Pop Standards = A great time for your event! "Soul Man" Delaware Floyd Like so many fine soul vocalists, Floyd began in the church choir as a youth, growing up in Ellsmere, Delaware. Also, like so many other talented singers, he gave up a promising musical career to get a "regular" job and raise a family. Now, with his children grown, he is back on stage, with a vengeance! His powerful gospel tinged voice energizes audiences wherever he goes. In recent years, he has appeared at such far-flung venues as The Funky Parrot club on Bourbon St. in New Orleans and the Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas. His heartfelt rendition of "One In A Million" will bring a lump to your throat, and you wont be able to stop your feet from dancing when he gets it on with the irrepressible beat of Tyrone Davis' "Can I Change My Mind". "
FREE tickets are available at Coffee Obsession (both locations), The Daily Brew, Woods Hole Market, and The Quarterdeck Restaurant. Stop in and check out these great businesses helping to support local music!
