About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

Gary and the Groove play clubs, concerts, private parties, country club events, weddings in the Maryland, Virginia, Delaware, Washington D.C. and Pennsylvania region. Gary also performs as a duo with keyboard player/vocalist. And check out the video demo of Gary Leigh Brown: one man band. Electric guitar, sax, and vocals are live with Gary's excellent quality backing tracks. This is a perfect option when budget or space are smaller. The band can play good time rock and roll from the '50s, through the '90s or they can do an all fifties or sixties rock and roll show. An 80s music theme is also available. For summertime, or a summertime feel, we have Motown, Jimmy Buffett, Bob Marley and Surf Music. We can now offer an exclusive "Summer '60s Show" if desired with classic songs and one-hit wonders from the mid 1960s. Gary and the Groove take you to a place of innocent fun, like a perfect day at a perfect beach, a space to relax, to refresh, to rejuvenate- where all is good, all is light- where it is always fun and we are forever young! The group consists of Gary on guitar, sax, harmonica, and vocals, plus, a drummer, a keyboard, keyboard bass/vocalist, and the optional female vocalist. The price is therefore negotiable, and reasonable. Gary and the Groove is a good-time rock and roll band that wants the audience to have a great time. Gary and the Groove is the ideal band for community concerts and family events, and they are just as good at keeping a dance floor packed and the party going.

Review by Renee B.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on March 12, 2024From Olney, MD

Gary performed solo for my 60's themed 60th birthday party. He was very talented and my guests seemed to really enjoy his music. I would highly recommend hiring him!

Community EventReviewed on October 17, 2021From Easton, MD

Gary was easy to work with and given the fact it was an outside concert, he accommodated us with a rain date which we had to option. The community loved the music, and given the age of the audience he selected pieces we all knew and could sing along with when asked, but it was an eclectic and varied mix. Perfect for a late afternoon. We want to have him back again when we can dance to the music - make it a real party. I highly recommend Gary and the Groove for an event. The sound is good and the band is flexible.

Gary and the Groove:

Thank you for the stellar review! We give the same 5 out of 5 to you for being very welcoming and considerate to play for. We look forward to playing for you next season!
