Get your groove on at this year’s Justice For All Ball with New Orleans’ own GOT Groove.
Since GOT Groove Band's inception, they have been "different," and they had "it." People walked away feeling as if the band left a lifelong impression and that each experience was personalized, just by the way the entertainers in GOT Groove Band involved themselves. Similar to the other ultra luxury Artists in Blue Earth, they have taken these factors that you can't teach, and applied an approach that translates to any level event. Their diversity as a unit touches every generation, with the ability to change the perception of even the most overplayed songs.
