TGC, short for The Groove Collective, started in New York City in the late 1990s. Led by DJ and producer Brian Cross, the group mixed jazz, funk, and soul with electronic music. They put out their first album, "Jazz Diaries Volume One," in 2000.
Later albums like "Now Hear This" and "The Source" came out in the early 2000s. They worked with artists such as Roy Ayers and Talib Kweli. Songs like "ECG" and "Rooms" show their blend of live instrumentation and electronic beats.
The band included members like Neal Evans on bass and Wil-Dog Abers on drums. They kept releasing music into the 2010s with albums like "Electric."
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
