Just musicians speaking to others in the same moment, and that their playing  together always makes a singular statement. Each member of Groovexpress is a consummate monster of a player, which is fully on display on their excellent new CD, LIVE AT GVR... the future of jazz looks very, very bright." - Al Gomes Co-founder, Big Noise, New York.

Just one listen to this very innovative jazz & soulful band will show you what it means to be recognised as the new beat of jazz music... LIVE AT GVR is one of the most brilliant "live albums" ever recorded & produced...anywhere!" - Paul Mac, Executive Producer, Phase Global Radio, Europe.
