Atlanta R&B fans, get ready to say yes to a soul-stirring reunion: iconic neo-soul duo Floetry is bringing their highly anticipated 2026 The Say Yes Tour to metro Atlanta.
This marks Floetry’s first full national tour together in a decade—since 2016—celebrating their enduring legacy and the 25th anniversary of their groundbreaking work.
When Is the Floetry Tour Coming To Metro Atlanta?
The “Say Yes” tour stops through the city on Friday, May 1, 2026, at The Arena at Southlake
The tour, produced by the Black Promoters Collective (BPC), the leading Black-owned promoter ranked among the top in the industry, promises an intimate, emotionally immersive live R&B experience focused on musicianship, lyricism, and authenticity.
Floetry—comprised of Marsha Ambrosius (the Songstress) and Natalie “The Floacist” Stewart—formed in 1999 after bonding over their love of basketball while attending the same UK school.
Emerging from the underground poetry scene, they revolutionized R&B by blending spoken-word poetry, rap-inflected cadences, and soulful melodies.
Their debut album Floetic (2002) went platinum in the U.S. (over 788,000 copies sold domestically and more than a million worldwide), featuring timeless hits like “Say Yes,” “Getting Late,” and even a bonus demo track originally intended for Michael Jackson’s “Butterflies.”
Follow-ups included the live album Floacism (2003, recorded at House of Blues in New Orleans) and Flo’Ology (2005).
The duo earned seven Grammy nominations, three Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards, and penned songs for legends like Earth, Wind & Fire, Patti LaBelle, Jill Scott, Macy Gray, and Bilal.
Their music continues to soundtrack love, healing, self-reflection, and emotional truth across generations, influencing the genre’s evolution and proving why R&B remains timeless.
Joining Floetry on this 16-city U.S. run are special guests Raheem DeVaughn, celebrated for his romanticism, social consciousness, and powerful live performances, and Teedra Moses, renowned for her emotional honesty, vocal precision, and timeless songwriting.
The lineup delivers a rare gathering of soul powerhouses connected by purpose and genuine artistry.
The tour kicks off April 9, 2026, in Newark, NJ, at NJPAC and wraps May 17, 2026, in Oakland, CA, at Paramount Theatre. Atlanta’s stop on May 1 fits perfectly into the Southeastern leg, following Charlotte and Durham and leading into Jacksonville.
Presales for local, venue, and promoters began Thursday, February 12, 2026 (using code BPC), with general public tickets going on sale Friday, February 13, 2026, at 10 a.m. local time. Fans can secure tickets via blackpromoterscollective.com/floetry or official ticketing partners like Ticketmaster.
For Atlanta audiences who have long embraced Floetry’s poetic R&B—whether through classic spins on V-103 or memories of past visits—this return is a must-see event.
Expect an evening of healing vibes, signature harmonies, and the kind of soulful connection that only Floetry can deliver. Don’t miss your chance to experience “Say Yes” live in the A.
