About / Biography

Groove Bus are a brilliant, dynamic five-piece party and wedding band ideal for any venue/occasion. They perform the best party tunes from the 60's to present day, incorporating anything from The Jackson 5 to Maroon 5, with the emphasis on energy and fun. Based in Cheshire and Manchester, their professional musicians have extensive experience nationally and overseas playing live music at corporate functions, weddings, parties, bars, clubs, hotels and universities.

Groove Bus are a featured top 5 UK wedding band in Vogue's Brides magazine. They're the covers band with a difference, in that they are always upbeat, unpredictable and never boring. This is especially evident in their medleys and 'mash-ups', prompting The Stage magazine to refer to their "fiendishly clever segued items".

If you want something special or out of the ordinary at your venue or event, look no further. If you want your guests to dance, sing and laugh out loud, book Groove Bus.

Lineup: drums, bass, guitar, keys, vocal.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

We are influenced by lots of different acts - Buddy Holly, The Beatles, Bowie to name a few and then also from recent chart acts like Ed Sheeran, Teddy Swims, Bruno Mars, The Weeknd


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

We have been gigging for over 25 years, we originally started a band and wrote songs to get signed, but when that didn't happen we were ready made for playing at events.


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

Any with a great crowd!

Set up is approx 1 hour


Are you happy to perform outside?

How long do you perform for?

How does the Djing playlist service work?
