Artist description In this musical time period of artists trying to invent something new and different, Groovy Judy puts a new face on the 60's sound that made the Bay Area what it is. From the songwriting influences of Sly and The Family Stone, Jimi Hendrix, and The Beatles sound, San Francisco's own brings forth her dominating style with the energy of some of today's most known artists. Most new artists are focused on developing catchy one line hooks and pop riffs that are here today and gone tomorrow. Groovy Judy focuses on making people smile and raising vibrations by delivering her own blend of funk/rock. Groovy Judy provides a constant and never ending dedication to bringing the messages to life through her endless giving to her community. Over the last few years, she has produced and performed benefits for charities and organizations such as The Leukemia Society, Food Not Bombs, The American Red Cross and Samaritan House. Her message and her actions are the foundation of who she is and what her music is about, and many people easily recognize her from her unique hats and glass. She acknowledges them as part of being an entertainer and she shrewdly uses their attention to "break the ice" with people to communicate her message. While music today is focusing on simply entertaining us, Groovy Judy reminds us that the message in the song, the action it brings, and the feeling it arouses is more important then if you can dance to
