Groove Collection

Groove Collection was a great choice for our wedding! We had initially thought of booking a DJ or compiling our own playlist on my ipod, worrying that a band could be kind of "hokey", for lack of a better word. After second thought, I remembered the last few weddings I went to, in which the DJ was hokey and the band was much more fun and interacted well with wedding guest.

Anyway, Groove Collection had a great set list, tons of musical ability, and a lead vocalist that can adapt to many artist, from My Morning Jacket to Johnny Cash. They were willing to use my ipod playlist for cocktail hour and were able to play the first dance song we requested. I was told that there have been only a couple of song request over the years that they could not fulfill. They played one "group participation" song, "Shout", which was perfect for us (not huge fans of line dances, the Macarena, or the like.). They far exceeded our expectations and solidified a great event! We are still getting compliments from our friends and family about Groove Collection.

To quote a wedding guest: "They are the best wedding band I've ever heard!"

Matt and the band were amazing! They made my reception such a fun event that no one wanted to stop dancing...young or old! It truly felt like the night flew by in just 30 minutes.....that's just how much fun we were all having! They even accommodated a special request first dance song that wasn't originally in their song list. Nice!!!

Everyone enjoyed Groove Collection and they performed extremely well. Highly recommended!

This band was more than incredible. Family and friends are still raving about them! Groove Collection played for my husband and I's wedding in Weaverville, NC on Memorial Day weekend. We knew we wanted a high-caliber band and we were not disappointed. Their energy was amazing and the talent was unparalleled. Every interaction with this band, from their manager Leslie, to the band members themselves was professional and prompt. I would hire them again in a second.

We hired Groove Collection, sight unseen (aside from the images on the website) and went strictly off of the reviews and songs they had posted on their website. The band was absolutely INCREDIBLE. Every band member is a true musician and Matt, the lead singer, has a voice that is perfect with any number of music genres. The band has a way of keeping the party going, without the attendees even knowing that they are doing it. As an example, if a song seems to bring a group onto the dance floor, the band will notice that everyone is dancing and will continue to keep that particular song going. The set list they brought had seamless transitions. I have never seen a crowd actually "boo" when they guys had to go on break (which was only twice during our wedding) and cheer"" when the ipod music stopped and the band re-took the stage. Throughout our reception we had people asking us where iwe found such a diverse, talented, and great sounding band. My wife and I put our faith into these guys and they delivered - hands down. AWESOME JOB. While we were married in Greenville, I wish I could bring these guys back to Texas for a party. They are excellent and you will NOT be disappointed. Job well done!

Groove Collection was the PERFECT band for our wedding! We found Groove Collection online, and we booked them based on the samples we heard. (We live in Dallas, but we got married in SC.) We were nervous since we had never heard them in person, but we went with our gut. The manager, Leslie, was very responsive and answered all of our questions. The band was willing to learn our first dance song, and they sang it beautifully! They also allowed my uncle to sing with them on stage! Our wedding was six months ago, and we still have friends and family talking about how amazing our band was. They read the crowd really well all night long and played the perfect set list for the evening. They were very flexible and even played the chorus of an old hip hop song my friends asked them to play as a surprise to me (the bride). I can't say enough wonderful things about Groove Collection. In fact, some of my friends in Dallas were wondering if the band traveled so they could get Groove Collection to play for their weddings one day. Thank you for making our event a HUGE success!

We saw Groove Collection perform at a friend's wedding in Asheville, and we were blown away. We decided immediately that we needed them for our wedding too. Both times that we've seen them, the dance floor was full from start to finish at the party. They even got cheered out for an encore. They have incredible range, playing everything from classics like Michael Jackson to modern artists like My Morning Jacket. Matt and Leslie are a pleasure to work with, and we couldn't recommend them more highly.

Could not have been happier! The band was incredible and willing to play all night! Great music selection and incredible talent! The city had to tell us to stop because the party was outside, otherwise the band was willing to play as long as we wanted. Very few breaks! We received many compliments and information requests regarding Groove Collection!

Groove Collection really made our wedding fun! Everyone was dancing the entire night! Very classy, so much fun, and local too! Lots of our quests complimented our choice on the band! We wouldn't change a thing! Thanks so much Groove Collection and Leslie Call! So happy we found you! If you are looking for a wedding band, you've found them!

I first discovered Groove Collection at another wedding, and I'm so glad I did. They did an amazing job at our wedding, and I would book them again in a heartbeat!

Groove Collection is an amazing band. Not just an amazing wedding band, but an amazing band. I would go see them play a concert. They are all masters of their craft and have personality to keep a crowd entertained. You will not be disappointed if you hire this band.

The band did a great job and had a good repoire with the audience. Many of my guests commented on how talented they were.

Groove Collection set the mood for the kind of wedding we wanted, a P-A-R-T-Y-Party! Matt is the most versatile singer I've ever come across, the drummer is solid and has great control, and the horns, keys and bass could back a r&b band in Memphis! This band is as tight as they get, without an ounce of cheese! I highly recommend GC if you want people talking about your reception for years to come.

Our wedding party had a great time at the reception thanks in large part to Groove Collection. They played for about 3 or 4 hours total. While they don't have a huge list of songs they know plenty to fill your reception with great music.
Very professional and experienced musicians. Couldn't have asked for a better band.

Great group, everyone enjoyed them thoroughly

The Groove Collection was amazing! I was pretty indifferent about getting a deejay or a band for the wedding, but I am so glad that my now husband convinced me to go with the band. It made SUCH a difference in the atmosphere and everyone had so much fun! The Groove Collection is so talented and their cover of our wedding song was amazing. Everyone complimented us on our band selection and I really think it was one of the best choices we made for the event.

I hired Groove Collection to perform at my daughter’s wedding on July 16, 2011. In one word… Incredible… okay, maybe two words… Incredible and Impressive!

I found them on-line… no prior association… no reference from anyone… just a feeling this was our band! Let me say… I am thrilled that I listened to my instincts! Matt Call was true to his word from beginning to end, and Groove Collection far exceeded our expectations for pre-ceremony, ceremony, and reception music! He met with us months before the wedding at our venue in Knoxville, Tennessee. My first impression was how professional he was… well-dressed, polite, kind and very accommodating! He was eager to work with us on a very untraditional arrangement for the wedding processional, and the band executed the arrangement flawlessly… my daughter and her husband were amazed with their vocals! In fact, everyone was amazed with their vocals… amazed with their talent!

I recommend Groove Collection with enthusiasm! In fact, they were a major hit with our guests and a major influence on the success of the wedding! All night, guests ages 20-70 were saying, “Where did you find this band? They are wonderful! They are great! They are the best we have heard!” My response is Bravo… thank you… job well done!

Again, without reservation, I can confidently recommend Groove Collection as a solid, reliable, high-quality band for any event large or small… They Will Not Disappoint!

Many Regards,
Suzanne Dickey, mother of the bride
Knoxville, Tennessee

They were awesome! Best part of our reception. We are still getting compliments and it has almost been a year. Many of our friends have gotten their contact to play their events since. Great job!

This band was awesome, people are still coming up to us telling us, where did you find this band. Their website truly sold their look and their talent.

When I spoke with the band leader we had a few requests and even our first dance to Ray LaMontaigne was a hit. From Michael Jackson to all the hits, they were fantastic.

Our entire wedding was dancing all the way through. To give you an idea, I never met with this band in person - I said this is what we want, this is our goal, and they delivered 110%! You should invest in the Groove Collection.
