The Floorwalkers Resolve

We feel it is necessary to appeal to all…children to adults, all races, and all languages. We aim to transcend…we aim to penetrate the system and start a revolution of love and human fellowship through music, art, and culture. We also encourage and practice soul music and expression of the soul at all times. We hope to put into our music what it deserves out of us in as many ways as necessary…our music will know no bounds. We cannot and will not decide where our music is taken on the symphonic and revolutionary journey to the spectrum of rock and roll that will now begin as THE FLOORWALKERS…May you find our message in stride, and in time understanding. For if all work together with intentions of changing and bettering this beautiful world that some god, our god, your god, and my god has given all of us wonderfully crafted and beautiful human beings. We can achieve a place for our world powerful enough to heal the pain and anger that too many suffer due to greed and misunderstandings…this shall be our resolve in present and future with LOVE as our intention and musical practice.

  • Local band takes a big toll in lives
    author: samantha gordon

    This local band has some of the most laid back lyrics that have alot of meaning behind them. The music makes you think and can brighten up anyones day. With Jon Elliott's voice and Ben, Kerry, Theo and Tom behind him it's an amazing sound. This band is fantastic when seen live.

  • A-effin'-Mazing.

    I just downloaded the album on iTunes. After seeing these guys over a month ago, I knew I had to get my hands on this album (getting my digial hands on it will do just fine). It's about time to hear good new music like this. I can't wait for the next show. If they just keep doing what they're doing, they'll make it as far as they want in the music business. There's a large target audience for music like this and now finally someone is tapping into that. Keep it up, guys.

  • An Amazing Sound
    author: Brian Wr....

    Jon Elliott has a sound way beyond his years. The Floorwalkers unique mix of Blues, Soul, and plain ole' Rockin' Roll are blessed to have a lead singer with the amazing talents of their lead vocalist. They are for real and I strongly believe they are the future.

  • Excellent!

    This CD is wonderful! And to think.. they're a local band! The songs are well written and well played. I recomend it for everyone!

  • I know about music, and, this is a very classy, excellent CD.
    author: A fan

    The songs on this CD should make it big in the world of Classic Rock and Acoustic music, both, because of its overall appeal to the refined ear of the music lover! Dont' be surprised if their name, The Floorwalkers, becomes a household word in the very near future!!!

  • The Floorwalkers bring generations of American music together seamlessly, soulfu

    Although all of the band members are very talented technically, it was not the mechanics of the music that initially drew me to this CD. It was the emotive picture the group was able to paint for me through their songs. It plays out like a soundtrack to the perfect, long, young Summer day. From tender and pensive, to raucous and break-free rock-and-roll, they never seem to miss. John's sugar sweet, soulful voice, and Ben's and Kerry's precise and, at the risk of sounding cliche', simply beautiful playing are an aural treat to say the least. The variety of music present is impressive, and showcases the band member's extensive musical immersion. They channel early rock and roll, give off a hint of ragtime, and lean heavily on the blues. I've been listening to it on repeat since I got my hands on it, and I catch myself singing their songs when no one is looking. Highly recomended.
