Queenstown Area

GROOVA utilise sequenced backing and aim to please young and old with a great selection of music from the 60’s through to the hits of today.
From background dinner music, to themed shows, or just music to make your party dance, this band does it all! They cover so many of your favorite songs from 50's and 60's Rock'n'Roll through to the hits of today.
All three members of the band have wonderful singing voices so not only do you get a fantastic variety of sound and styles, you get the songs delivered with impeccable three part harmonies!
They also pride themselves on going the extra mile and are happy to learn that special wedding dance song, or tailor their show to suit your theme. Lee, Richard and Peter met during the 2002 Showbiz production of C’mon Let’s Go, in which they each had leading roles. A solid friendship was formed and they decided to pool their respective musical talents to create ‘Groova’. Their aim was to form a Trio perfect for functions.

Ideal for: Corporate Function, Private Party, Wedding Reception
