Highly recommended :)

I hired Groove & Co. for our event and couldn’t be happier! The music quality was outstanding and the musicians were incredibly professional and easy to work with. They played a wide variety of songs across different genres and handled everything so smoothly. Our guests were raving about the live music all night. Highly recommend!

Flawless Performance & Unforgettable Music!

We hired Groove & Co. for our wedding and they were beyond amazing! Our timeline was a bit complex—we had surprise performances, an extended cocktail hour, and a playlist that spanned everything from jazz and Motown to pop and indie—and they handled it all flawlessly. The band’s professionalism, flexibility, and pure talent blew us (and our guests!) away. Every single moment had the perfect vibe, and the music truly elevated the entire experience. I’m still getting compliments from guests about how incredible the live music was! If you want your event to feel magical and sound phenomenal, hire Groove & Co. You will not regret it!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
