Grateful Groove was formed out of a love for the music of the Grateful Dead in late 2001, with the intentions of gaining a better understanding of this timeless music. Through some lineup changes and lots of hard work it has grown into something more than that.

Grateful Groove is a grand example of the electric, eclectic Grateful Dead.   The music is very versatile in that it works well in many settings such as nightclubs, coffeehouses, and bars as well as outdoor music festivals, and social gatherings.

Like the Grateful Dead, Grateful Groove pulls in a crowd from all ages and lifestyles, and is not hindered by style and clique.
