Groovexpress
Groovexpress is a contemporary instrumental ensemble, formed in 2010 by composer, arranger and producer, Mykeljon. Featuring experienced musicians at the top of their game, Groovexpress masterfully fuse elements of soul, jazz, funk and pop to create “upbeat, fun, and sensual” music that “moves and grooves” with the times!
Groovexpress' first two projects, the smooth jazz studio album ‘Ukrainian Doll’, and bluesy live cut ‘Live at GVR’, paved the way for the chart-topping ‘Amsterdaam’, which hit #1 on the Billboard Contemporary Jazz charts, spending 8 weeks in the Top 15.
Now, Groovexpress returns with ‘Get Down & Funk’, a groovy, feel-good vocal album, which “promises to be the remedy for all that ails thee for 2020… and beyond”.
So grab a ticket, get onboard, and get your groove on! – Groovexpress is not to be missed.
