About us

The Groove is the only place in New York City to hear live R&B, Funk, & Soul music 7 nights a week. What started off as a group of talented musicians jamming at the legendary 101 bar in the early 90s, has evolved into a roster of rotating house bands comprised of the best musicians, and performers in the city. Sure the bands have changed slightly over the years, but as musicians have come and gone, the thing that remains consistent about the Groove is the unbelievable talent of all the bands.

In addition to all the great bands featured here at the Groove, it is not at all uncommon to see celebrities such as Chaka Khan, Lisa Lisa, Peter Guns and Lord Tariq to name just a few jam with one of the Groove bands. In fact, even future hall of famer Shaquille O’Neal, has been spotted doing his thing at the Groove. In addition to famous artists stopping in to jam with the band for the evening, most of the Groove musicians have toured with legendary artists at one time or another.

Groove offers free admission Sunday through Thursday, and features a delicious all fresh food menu that is open until the early hours of the morning. If you enjoy great live music, and are looking for a fun, and entertaining evening out, then you must check out the Groove!
