For the first time in over a decade, ’90s jam stalwarts Addison Groove Project will perform live with two shows, one in Boston and another a week later at DROM in the East Village, slated for 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addison Groove Project formed in high school in the suburbs outside of Boston, gaining a reputation as a hard working and talented band, performing at festivals including Bonnaroo and across the Northeast, bringing a combo of funk, soul, rock, groove and jazz. The band’s founding bassist, John Hall<\/a>, passed away in 2004.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the band notes, it has been about a lifetime since the group last performed live. Brendan McGinn (vocals\/guitar) is now a doctor, Andrew Keith (drummer) is a therapist, Ben Groppe (tenor sax) is a chef, Dave Adams (saxophone) is currently band director at a middle school, and Rob Marscher (keys) continues to play music with Matisyahu <\/a>and Star Kitchen, on the side of software development gigs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the band each with families at the forefront of their lives, instead of getting together each weekend at iconic New England rock clubs, the band’s group chat has led to a desire to play together again for the first time since 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The band joked about their absence for fans to “come out in March to see if we\u2019ve still got it or if we should stick to our day jobs.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
