An intense mix of deep bass and hypnotic beats
Producer and vocalist Grove fuses dancehall, bass, and hip-hop into a bold new sound, driven by sensual liberation and political defiance.
Inspired by the DIY ethos of punk, the catharsis of dance music, and the power of Jamaican soundsystem culture, Grove delivers food for thought on the dance floor, with energy to turn thought into action.
Since 2021, Grove has released Queer + Black, an exploration of personal and political identity, SPICE, and P*W*R // PL*Y which examines power-based relationships through radical and playful lenses. Tracks like BIG BOOTS offer a timely riposte to the monarchy, imperialism, and systemic racism, while MILF MAGNET celebrates the simple pleasures of appreciating beautiful older women.
Over the past two years, Grove has performed at festivals throughout Europe and supported artists like Bob Vylan, Peaches, BABii, and Moonchild Sanelly. Their sound has earned public acclaim from radio taste-makers Mary Anne Hobbs, Steve Lamacq, Jamz Supernova, and Jack Saunders.
Going hard with the drum and bass beats and the blunt aggression of the icy end of hyperpop, Grove’s music is unforgiving and confrontational”
