CHENE PARK SUMMER CONCERT SERIES









DAWN OF THE DIVAS



It was February 9, 1964 that we were invaded by a group from another country "The Beatles" when they performed on the Ed Sullivan Show. Well on the evening of June 20, 2015 we were invaded again at the Chene Park Amphitheatre by the female groups Floetry from London, England and Les Nubians from Paris, France along with singer Estelle from London, England. On another evening that was threatening possible storms but they ended up passing us by, these ladies put on quite a show. The sisters known as Les Nubians took to the stage first performing their tribal, neo soul music that has kept them going since coming on the scene in 1998. Then they were followed by the lone songstress Estelle who swooned us with her slow jams then had the place rocking with her hit singles American Boy and Something Good. Closing out the night were the dynamic duo of Floetry (Natalie Stewart and Marsha Ambrosius) who had separated to do solo work but have reunited to do tours after nine years apart and it was as if they had never missed a beat without each other.They put it down with their floetic, poetic grooves. On what turned out to be a beautiful evening you can never go wrong hearing the sweet sound of some soulful sister at the wonderful backdrop of this outdoor theater. The Reel Hustler strongly encourages you go to the website and check the listing for some of the other exciting shows that are coming up at Chene Park celebrating their 30 Year Anniversary. Take advantage of these summer concerts at this outdoor city venue...you won't be disappointed!
