THE GROOVE REGULATORS
About
The Groove Regulators combine the best of classic funk, soul and disco from the 60s, 70s and 80s along with some cool recent hits so there’s something for all ages to enjoy. Youth does not mean inexperience, as this young, fresh and funky band have been filling dance floors up and down the country for over ten years.
The band can perform as a five-piece consisting of female vocals, bass, guitar/rapping, keyboard/sax/backing vocals and drums, but they can also go up to an eight-piece by adding a second lead vocalist , guitar, sax or percussion. The line-up featured on our demo tracks is seven-piece including the second lead vocalist.
Members of this young and talented group have played alongside Roots Manuva, Boney M and De La Soul and between them they also hold a clutch of degrees from the Academy of Contemporary Music. Whether it be on a boat on the Thames or up a mountain in Scotland, this band are guaranteed to get the party started, so get on your dancing shoes!
The band usually play two one-hour sets but times can be altered to suit the function. They have a professional PA and lighting system and provide recorded music in their breaks. A laptop DJ service, acoustic reception music or an afternoon jazz set are all available for an additional fee.

What people say about THE GROOVE REGULATORS
“The Groove Regulatirs were absolutley brilliant on Saturday! They were very professional, arrriving on time and setting up without being intrusive. Most importantly the music was great and they really made the party. It was just what we had hoped for and I cant compliment them enough. Also thanks to you and your organisation it was all very smooth and I’ve given out your details to a few mates who are throwing parties.” Pete and Lou, Babergh Hall, Suffolk
“The Groove Regulators were amazingly talented and had the entire wedding party up grooving and singing along. We had the best time thank you!”
Nick Sharp – wedding reception – Surrey
“I just wanted to e-mail to thank the Groove Regulators for playing at our wedding. You guys we terrific in all respects. You turned up on time and setup with no fuss at all, leaving us to carry on enjoying the day. Your equipment was tuned perfectly so sounded great in the room. But most importantly you sounded great and you got everyone dancing, many people have since commented on how good you were. Also, thank you for learning our first dance, which isn’t on your usual set list, this made our day.”
Laura Croucher – wedding reception – Essex
“We cannot recommend Groove Regulators highly enough after they played at our wedding in May 2011. They had everyone dancing all night, regardless of age of music taste, and we were thrilled that they learned to play the song for our first dance.”
Kate Buddery – wedding reception – Surrey
“We really enjoyed having the band at the Regatta, really vibrant addition to a lovely summer event. I was impressed by the size of the audience they attracted, we even kept the bar open an extra hour as everything was going so well. I was also impressed by their professional approach and the way they set up and cleared down with minimal fuss.”
