Euge Groove's New Groovy Hairstyle

Saxophonist Euge Groove has decided to complete the ensemble for his upcoming retro CD called Just Feels Right. On the CD, Groove wrote smooth jazz with an eye toward 1976, which he calls his “summer of innocence.”

For the most part, he used instruments made before that year, and also enlisted musicians who were active in the era. So what has he done to complete the ensemble?

He’s let his hair grow out. Euge Groove-y, man!

Look at the CD cover, which will be available on Aug. 30, and you’ll see the saxophonist sporting shoulder-length hair and long goatee hanging from his chin. Groove says he actually started growing his hair out last fall when he began writing songs for the CD. He says he’s particularly proud of his goatee, which he says won’t get much longer now as he is trimming it regularly.

The retro look and sound seems to be working – Groove’s first single from the album, “Get Em Goin’,” is quickly moving up the smooth jazz charts.
