MySpace a place for friends

Professor Groove began honing his skills mixing funk on Montreal radio station CKUT in 1996. Fast forward through hundreds of radio show sessions, several club residencies including Montreal's long-running Rockdeep Tuesdays, invited gigs in the US and Europe, and a decade of digging ever- deeper into the rich earth of funk music—in 2008 the funk flows stronger than ever through the Prof's fingers.

Keeping the raw, compelling sounds of 70s funk front and center, Professor Groove brings in connections with soul, jazz, disco, hip-hop, African and latin grooves. The radio show WEFUNK, now in its 12th year on CKUT, has attracted a wide, devoted international audience through the internet. On WEFUNK, Professor Groove and partner DJ Static meld four decades of Black American music, selecting rare and underground tracks alongside influential innovators like James Brown, Kool & The Gang, Eric B & Rakim, and Nas. Spinning live Professor Groove brings the same touch, equally comfortable keeping the dancefloor on fire, laying down breaks for b-boys & b-girls, or bringing a warm vibe to a lounge setting. Any way you cut it—Groove's got funk for days.
