Groove Armada

2 festivals played ↓

'Superstylin'' and two decades of UK dance warmth — festival closers by trade, from chill-out classics to full-tilt house.

Groove Armada are Andy Cato and Tom Findlay, who met in London in the mid-1990s and began releasing records that moved between downtempo and dancefloor material. Their early single "At the River," built on a Patti Page sample, became a chill-out staple, while "I See You Baby" and "Superstylin'" pushed them toward bigger rooms.

Albums including Vertigo and Goodbye Country (Hello Nightclub) established a sound that took in big beat, house, dub and disco without settling on any one of them. The pair have worked in both DJ and live-band formats over the years, with a rotating cast of vocalists and musicians.
