Perpetual Groove

Perpetual Groove was founded in Savannah, GA, in 1997 before relocating in 2005 to

Athens, Georgia, a town long renowned for its thriving music scene. PGroove comprises

1904 and current members: Brock Butler on guitar and lead vocals; Adam Perry on bass

guitar; and Matthew McDonald on keyboards and vocals. Drummer Albert Suttle joined

the band in 2001 but has announced his departure culminating with this year’s NYE show.

Replacing him on drums will be Darren Stanley (Jimmy Herring, Col. Bruce Hampton).

PGroove, a band categorized by fans as “Trance Arena Rock,” is an amalgamation of rock

and indie electronica, with a touch of metal thrown in for good measure. With their intelligent

light show and experimental stage set up, PGroove continues to create a cultivated, unique

experience for each live show. Since their inception, the band has toured the U.S., and

performed in Japan and Amsterdam and Jam Cruise. In 2013, PGroove went on 2 year

hiatus but caught everyone by surprise in 2015 when they returned to the stage. In 2019,

they released a new recording, the eponymous Perpetual Groove, delighting fans with a

new sound by the reinvigorated group.

PGroove's latest release, “C’mon. Covers?” EP, was recorded at Chase Park

Transduction (R.E.M, Drive-By Truckers, Bettye Lavette) in Athens and includes songs

by Peter Gabriel, The Cars, The Go-Go's, and Johnny Cash. It was produced by Jason

Kingsland (Band of Horses, Belle and Sebastian). The recording ensemble included

Butler, Perry, McDonald and Stanley. It was released on all major digital formats on

September 17, 2021.
