Floyd02_sm.jpg (2420 bytes)"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 won’t 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".

Judy02_sm.jpg (3478 bytes)"Sweet Judy" Teo

Born in the soul capitol of the midwest (that’s right – Fond-Du Lac, Wisconsin), Judy hit the road at a young age, touring with a band from her hometown. Settling in Boston, she has brought her sweet soulful voice to such legendary Boston bands as Gypsy, Goodnight Louise, Bijou, and many others. She has performed with international stars such as Maxine Nightingale, and performs regularly at the House of  Blues gospel brunch with the gospel group Rev. Lee Mitchell & Co. She is also regularly called on to back up the Harvey Robbins and the Royalty of Rock and Roll All Stars show, which features many legends of  doo-wop and rock and roll.

JB03_sm.jpg (2818 bytes)J. B., Jr. "The Godnephew of Soul"

You might guess that a singer with the stage name "J. B. Jr." would be borrowing heavily from the James Brown songbook. You might be right. A native of Richfield, NC, JB grew up idolizing and emulating his musical hero. Making his home in Boston since the mid-60’s, he has spent a lifetime on and off the road, at various times bringing his act to the stage as an opener for such legends as The Blue Notes, Wilson Pickett, Millie Jackson, Maurice Starr, Sam & Dave, and yes, the "real" James Brown. His energy is infectious, whether doing the Camel Walk across the stage, or splits in the middle of the dance floor; the whole audience will just have to "git up, git on up"!
