Summer Concerts 2025
Highlights
FLO COLLECTIVE
D’Oyly Carte Island is delighted to welcome back the star of our 2024 Summer Concerts. The award-winning Flo Collective.
This will be a night to remember, whilst you sip your Pimms, Rose or D’Oyly’s Cocktail you can dance the night away on a private island to some of the best music ever created and performed by the super talented Flo Collective.
This amazing seven-piece band is a modern soul band borne out of the love of playing music. Their repertoire covers the 50's (Motown, Aretha, James Brown) to today's top hits (by Bruno Mars, Mark Ronson, Beyonce).
The band is a collective of professional musicians all with years of live performances with well known artists with many of the band formally trained in Jazz and Classical at London's leading music colleges..
