Not your typical wedding band

Why couples pick Blue Avenue Groove

Book the band, not an agency

You work directly with the bandleader, so you get the personal attention the big corporate companies just can’t match.

6–12 pieces, male & female vocals

A horn-driven rhythm section with sax, trumpet and trombone, scaled to your room and your budget.

Funk, soul & Motown that fills the floor

From R&B and pop to rock. Real musicians who read the room and keep everyone dancing.

Ceremony to last dance

A trio for your ceremony, jazz for cocktail hour, and a powerhouse band for the reception.

Every generation dancing

From the three-year-old nephew to the grandparents, nobody stays in their seat.

Guests are still talking about it

The thing I hear most often is “they are not a typical wedding band,” and trust me, that’s a compliment. They had everyone dancing, from our three-year-old nephew to the grandparents.

Elizabeth K.

By far the best band I have ever heard at a wedding. They energized the whole crowd, from a five-year-old to folks in their 70s. People have been talking about them ever since.

Aly P.

Not one of our 110 guests didn’t rave about the band. We chose them over the big corporate companies for the attention they gave us. Book ’em before they book your date.
