Tongue-n-Groove is a 5-member band featuring alternating male/female lead vocals covering a wide range of popular music from alternative to aggressive rock.
Tongue-n-Groove was formed by Rob and Steve back in October 2000 simply as an outlet to do what they love - play music. Mark had been a singer for years belting out the best of Bon Jovi and Motley Crue and since Rob and Steve were too busy playing drums and bass, they brought him on board as lead vocals. Next, they tricked Steve's neighbor Bill into joining the band on guitar. Bill has many years of experience in the industry, but can't remember any of it. But, they keep him around because of his rockability. Singer, Christine was a late addition to the lineup as they really didn't believe she could sing. And, boy...can she sing! Just by adding her vocals to the music, their range and dynamics increased exponentially.
When not playing their instruments the members of Tongue-n-Groove are very career minded professionals. Two of the members own businesses, there is a V.P. of Operations, a web developer and another works for a Global Consulting organization. With their busy schedules and family commitments, Tongue-n-Groove has been playing gigs on a relaxed schedule, but the band has decided that to satisfy the fans they need to do more shows. They're looking forward to playing area festivals and booking several shows a month in 2008.
Tongue-n-Groove has recently added an acoustic set to their show. Playing songs that fans have never heard stripped down really shows the band's versatility.
Booking
