TheGrooves

The Grooves were recommended to me as I sought out a band for my wedding reception. They could not have done a better job! They were perfect for me! They worked within my budget. I loved what I saw on their website but that hardly compares to how wonderful they actually were at our reception! Bruce, the band leader was especially communicative throughout the months leading up to the wedding. He reached out every few weeks to make sure we were on track and talk about how he and the band could make the night more perfect for us. The Grooves have a huge list of songs but they were willing to learn our wedding song and any other requests we had. We were requesting With This Ring by the Platters because we wanted to learn the Carolina Shag. The band played that perfectly and created a full Shag set to keep my NC family and us on the dance floor. They were very flexible throughout the night willing to make adjustments as needed for our schedule. They worked seamlessly with our MC and the catering captain. Our caterer even mentioned how good they were...and I imagine she sees a lot of bands. I think the most important review I can give though is from my guests. I had countless people come up to me all night long and ask "WHERE did you find this band?" and proclaim "I LOVE this band!" or "Good job picking the band!" My advice to you is to book them as soon as you can!

I found TheGrooves on theknot.com. I checked out the website and based on their music videos and they seemed perfect! Not only that, but our wedding was planned a little last minute and they had our date available! The only thing I kept hearing is, you can’t book your music unless you hear them live. So we took the trip to see them at a showcase gig. If you are unable to make it out to see them live let me tell you what you see in the videos is what you will see live! We were thrilled their videos did not falsely represent them. Communication with Bruce was extremely easy. I am a bit particular and he was great to work with. Another thing I really liked is he was readily available to answer questions. Some of the other bands I found on the knot would take a week or more to respond. Communication is important to me. The price was super affordable and they were able to stay within / work with my budget. Not only that but the day of they were prepared and ready on time and they were super flexible. I gave them a schedule before hand, unfortunately my venue was running behind and they accommodated that no problem. They sounded just as good as we expected, harmonies were amazing and they had everyone up on the dance floor dancing around for an unforgettable night!!!

The Grooves were the best band we could have ever imagined. We had a backyard wedding and they really set the mood. They are very professional and know what they are doing. They showed up early to set up and had everything handled. We had some unfortunate heavy rain, but the band worked with us and we made it work. They are true musicians and absolutely rocked the party! Everyone from all ages was dancing and kept coming up to tell me how good the band was. I would 100% recommend them for any event. They MADE the night absolutely unforgettable.

If I could rate The Grooves 10 stars I would! They were an AMAZING band to hire for our wedding reception. I had many guests come up to me throughout the night telling me how much they LOVED this band. From beginning to end, their variety, harmonies and energy really helped make the night special. From day 1, Bruce was so accommodating and just such a pleasure to work with. Melissa’s voice is out of this world. I cannot say enough about how happy I am that I found them!! Thank you!!
