Description

The Groove Merchants are the USA's Hottest Cover/Party Band. Combining some of the very most experienced and talented event musicians in western United States, the Groove Merchants play your favorite dance tunes from all the decades including current top 40 hits. Get your groove on as the groove merchants lay down the boogie and play that funky music till you die.

Most bands leave unwanted space in between each song selection. This makes it hard for people to stay on the dance floor. The Groove Merchants move seamlessly from tune to tune and keep the energy up all night so your guests stay dancing and having fun. They perform all their songs live with a 3 piece horn section, backup singers and put on a show like no other band around. If you are looking for a show, they can incorporate limbo contests, celebrity impersonations and costume changes into their act. If not, they will just keep playing great tunes all night.

Feedback

  • The Groove Merchants set the mood for a great party!! Everyone from 2 thru 80 enjoyed dancing and listening and watching them play! It was especially fun when the brass section came down from the stage and played right on the dance floor! Well worth the money!! -- Cynthia T, Lindon, UT, 7/16/2011
  • Great band!! They were absolutely perfect for our outside mountain wedding. They were great with all communication and very professional. I would highly recommend them! -- Clay A, Jackson Hole, WY, 9/17/2011
