About Us:

Groove Society is an award-winning vocal ensemble with a growing reputation for their excellence in Jazz and the art of group singing. Thoughtfully crafted arrangements, masterful use of extended harmonies, intricate rhythms and exhilarating improvisations characterize this ensemble's unique sound. Although the group's roots are firmly planted in the Jazz genre, they are not afraid to demonstrate their versatility by performing in a variety of styles. Whether singing Latin, Blues, Bebop, Rock, Pop, Funk or R&B, a common thread of exuberant passion and soul runs throughout each performance. Former members of the University of Northern Colorado's Grammy nominated ensemble, Vocal Jazz 1, formed the group in 2002. With degrees ranging from vocal performance to music education to theory and composition, they have combined their talents to create a dynamic group that captivates audiences and finds itself in demand. Groove Society is now performing throughout North America and has shared the billing with, or opened for influential Jazz and Blues artists including Bonnie Raitt, Wynton Marsalis, Eddie Palmieri, Paquito D'Rivera, Bobby McFerrin, Freddy Cole, Patty Austin, the Rippingtons, Bobby Hutcherson, Peter Eldridge, Nelson Rangell, Paul Taylor and Kathy Kosins, as well as the internationally acclaimed Rock group, Styx. In addition to their busy performing schedule, Groove Society also works in education, giving workshops and clinics to high school and college students. Individually, members are involved in a variety of projects including solo performances and recordings, teaching, adjudicating, writing and arranging. The group hopes to continue to explore all styles of music and expand their audiences for years to come.

About Us:

Over the course of the past century, music has been enriched by the talents of many wonderful musicians and songwriters. This wealth of creativity has delivered such an overwhelming quantity of material that we are forced to qualify the sounds into categories that enable the listener to define the listening experience. As musicians looking to expose our finesse while realizing the need for order, we choose to celebrate life with the richness and freedom of Jazz and the syncopation of Funk. FUNK SHUI, pronounced Funk Shway, was founded in 2001 in Denver, Colorado by Andreas Taber (guitars/vocals).
