How was the groovement started?

the groovement traces its roots back to two friends, a shared love of live music, and a google doc. The two friends were having a hard time keeping track of all the upcoming shows in NYC, so the google doc was born. Fast forward past sharing the doc with friends, who shared it with their friends, and it became a resource for locals and visitors alike to find shows, meet awesome people and share in the magic of live music together.

Today, the groovement is a thriving community platform for live music. As the trusted source for live music in NYC, the groovement handpicks the best shows, with the best vibes, for the best crowd. We believe in supporting the scene and use our platform, programs, and values to elevate artists, venues, photographers, writers, the local community, and the fan experience.
