May 4, 2025Groove Machine Delivers
As a small venue, we rely on the band playing to bring a crowd, and they did. The dance floor was packed all night and our regular customers all commented on how much they enjoyed the band. They were a pleasure to work with, smooth set-up and breakdown and great music all night.
