Artist description Mother Grove blends original progressive rock with traditional and not-so traditional Celtic instruments to create a sound that is unique, fresh and timeless.Mother Grove is influenced by such bands as Seven Nations, The Pogues, and The Chieftans, to name a few, as well as classic, alternative and progressive rock artists such as Dave Matthews, Ben Harper and others. The band truly shines live. With unstoppable grooves and multi-layered rhythms, the music dares you stand still. By the end of the evening you feel as if you are a part of the band. Lyric wise, Mother Grove draws from many sources; historical, traditional, spiritual and personal. The words are then entwined with memorable melodies and beautiful harmonies.
