"I genuinely will never get over how amazing The Groove Generators were when I booked them to play at my best friends hen!! They were the highlight of our weekend; so talented, friendly and fun. Not even the torrential rain could put us off - what was meant to be a garden party turned into a conservatory party but these guys were so flexible and accommodating. They even let the bride feel like a rockstar and got her up to do a solo. Myself and all the hens will be talking about this for years to come. I can’t thank you all enough. Already thinking about what event I can plan next just so I can book you!!"
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"Our Annual End of Season BBQ is the highlight of our year, this year we went on the hunt for a band to play in the afternoon. After being contacted by The Groove Generators, we quickly agreed on them performing and I'm delighted to say not only were they incredibly responsive on their communications they were absolutely phenomenal performers. Having only listened to their FB performances etc l was apprehensive as to whether they would hit the mark with our members, I needn't worry! Their brief was "keep them on the feet and get them singing along". They read the crowd perfectly, played great songs and most importantly they sounded excellent! Thank you guys for a great afternoon of music. Feedback from everyone was brilliant and we can't wait to invite you back next year! Thanks again."
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"The Groove Generators certainly made the party! I had a 50th party planned for a year and was let down by the original band booked only a few months before. Someone recommended the Groove Generators and when I contacted them, they were quick to respond, SO helpful and managed to go to the trouble of re arranging something to accommodate me. I was so grateful. Stu kept in regular contact with me, really putting my mind at ease. On the day, they were fabulous! The song list was spot on and their set up worked really well at the location. The energy was great and the band interacted with the guests well too. Thank you all for a great evening that everyone has commented on. I would highly recommend."

The whole band was incredible - the guitar, the bass and the drums and got everyone up dancing. Kiele is an amazing singer and the evening was a roaring success.

Verified booking on FixTheMusic"So impressed with The Groove Generators. Contacted Stu in May to book for my birthday party in December. Luckily they were able to accommodate especially with the run up to Christmas. Nothing was too much trouble booking was so easy. Arrived at my birthday venue and they were all set up ready to get everyone on the floor and that’s where everyone stayed all night on the dance floor. Great assortment of music. Didn’t want them to stop. Would recommend The Groove Generators for any celebration.. Thanks all for making my birthday memorable."
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"When we booked our wedding with you in 2012 you were amazing-fast forward 7 years and you certainly topped it with Matt's 40th!! The happiest of memories have been created by you guys on both occasions , we simply cannot recommend you enough!! Matt loved the cover of baby d and it made his night. I’ve had so many comments from guests about how great and friendly you all are. The booking process, set up times, set list etc were all straightforward and was guided through with ease.
