One of my favourite party bands in the North West is ‘Groove Nation’. I’ve worked with them on several occasions & they always ‘deliver the goods’. Modern sound performing lively covers of funk, rock & pop favourites.

The line up is:

Jen Eva Boardman – Lead vocals

Ste Mak – Lead guitar & vocals

Darren Andrews – on drums

Darren Glover on bass guitar.
