Buddy and the scarecrow
"From the very first time I saw/heard this band at the FAIRVIEW PUB I knew they were something special, what sets this band apart from most is the way they play as a seamless unit, great jams that can get you moving on the dance floor and every member of the band is a really nice person that will engage in a conversation with any fan. I have seen them play many many times and each time I leave I am left wanting more and awaiting the next show. If you have not seen this band I suggest you take the time to seek them out and hear what you have been missing"

"Strange Brue IS strangely brewing a music storm of radiant light that you can feel in your bones forever.

Groove Ride
"If you're considering Groove Ride for your wedding or event, stop searching and book them immediately.
Groove Ride was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, Doc was incredible to work with. He was responsive, organized, thoughtful, and made the entire planning process feel effortless. Every question was answered quickly, every detail was handled professionally, and he gave us complete confidence that the entertainment would be amazing.
And wow—did they deliver. The band absolutely brought the party. Our dance floor was packed all night long, from the first song to the last. The energy, talent, and ability to read the crowd were unmatched. We had guests of all ages dancing, singing along, and having the time of their lives.
One of the things we heard over and over throughout the night was, “Where did you find this band?” and “They are incredible!” Our guests are still talking about them weeks later.
If you want a band that will keep your guests engaged, create unforgettable memories, and make your reception the party everyone talks about, Groove Ride is it. We cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you, Doc and the entire Groove Ride team, for helping make our wedding so special and so much fun!"
Soul Food Band
"These men are the absolute best!! They play old, new and progressive music, R&B, and just an overall great assortment of genre of music"
Groove 'N Motion
"Groove 'N Motion performed for our wedding in August 2021 and they were incredible at every level. GnM had excellent communication, were affordable, were accommodating and understanding, played an amazing and wide-ranging setlist, and rocked with high energy all through the night. Our wedding guests, young and old, have said over and over how much they loved our dance floor and that GnM was the best wedding band they had ever seen. We agree and could not recommend them any higher.
Scott, our main point of contact, was very communicative and accommodating, including when we had to reschedule our wedding because of covid. He also had a great ability to give advice and perspective from GnM's significant experience playing weddings and large events while still taking our more specific requests to heart. For example, GnM offered a range of modern and classic songs on a designated setlist but also enabled us to make many of our own requests of favorite songs not on their list. They also allowed us to send family to see them rehearse before we booked them because we at the time lived out of state. And they traveled from Denver to our venue in Salida, CO and were great sports about making the trip.
It is important to make clear that GnM is not just a random group of musicians who are occasionally pulled together to play a wedding (like we discovered many commercial wedding bands can be). Groove 'N Motion is a true band with great continuity and a range of talents. It's clear they love playing music together and have fantastic rapport.
GnM was amazing during our reception. They have their own sound mixer, who helpfully made sure the music never got too loud for our older guests. They played approx 3.5-4 hours for our reception and kept everyone out on the dance floor. The only problem we had was that so many guests wanted to stay for the music that everyone waited to take the last shuttle home!
GnM was also excellent for our ceremony songs (a couple songs for guest seating, processional, and recessional) and provided a nice jazz quartet during our cocktail hour.
These guys are talented and have range. Being able to rock a country song that is a family favorite and then soon after play some true funk hits is not something just any band could pull off. GnM did it without any problem. If you want to make sure that you have a wedding band that can perform songs in your setlist for all your guests to enjoy, look no further than Groove 'N Motion. You will not be disappointed."
Groove Nation Orchestra
"Dave and the band were incredible for our wedding. They had the dancefloor packed and jamming the entire time they played. Every song they played sounded great; the overall talent of the band was evident. We would HIGHLY recommend GNO for someone else's wedding, they played a great list and the special dance songs were top notch! Literally dozens of our wedding guests told us that night and the following day how awesome a band they were and how great the party was, and we completely agree! Thanks again to Dave and GNO, you guys helped make our special day even more memorable!"
