Garden Grooves + Band in Santa Monica, CA

SEEKING

ABOUT

Garden Grooves is a throwback cover band based in Southern California made up of diverse artists that are passionate about funk, soul, disco, and pop music. The nine-piece band formed when much of the world was on pause, where they often had to rehearse in their backyards (many thanks went to kind neighbors!). As several members originate from various countries, they often referred to those backyard rehearsals as "garden sessions"; thus the name Garden Grooves. They are currently playing at clubs around the L.A. area (recently at The Brewyard in Glendale and Tr!p in Santa Monica) and are available for private parties, concerts, and events.
