SUMMARY:Euge Groove
DESCRIPTION:Thu. Nov. 5: EUGE GROOVE -7:30pm- Tix: $45.00 ($60.80 through
  Ticketmaster\, $52.00 at the Birchmere Box Office) Chart-Topping Saxoph
 onist Euge Groove Ascends to New Heights on Long-Awaited and Triumphant 
 New Recording Finding Resilience\, Joy and Peace on THE PHOENIX Availabl
 e Everywhere July 17\, 2026 “I am The Phoenix!” exclaims Steven EUGEne G
 ROoVE. “After all that has happened in my life over the last several yea
 rs\, I literally am The Phoenix! In the story of the Greek Phoenix\, he 
 lived an amazing life\, which is why he was reduced into ashes from flam
 es of bright\, vibrant colors. His transformation was meant to take his 
 life to the next level to live out eternity. Sometimes you have to burn 
 it all down and rebuild to get there.” Euge Groove’s highly anticipated 
 new album\, The Phoenix (a follow-up to 2023’s lauded Comfort Zone)\, is
  not merely a new recording from one of Contemporary Jazz’s luminaries b
 ut it is a bold declaration of the evolution of a man\, musician and spi
 ritual being. Having recovered from life-saving open heart surgery—aided
  by his remarkable Bernedoodle\, Odysseus\, a service dog trained in car
 diac alert—there is something serendipitous about Euge Groove’s new albu
 m being his fourteenth. In many religions and cultures\, the number four
 teen is often viewed as a symbol of balance\, harmony\, and spiritual gr
 owth\, which are all areas coming into focus for the saxophonist. The Ph
 oenix (available everywhere July 17\, 2026) is his most spirit inspired 
 statement yet and it highlights his compelling compositions and keen arr
 angements. Throughout the recording\, his laid-back yet audacious playin
 g rings with a clear\, satisfying intention. The prolific musician\, who
  has collaborated with iconic artists ranging from Tina Turner\, Tower o
 f Power\, and The Eurythmics to Aaron Neville\, Huey Lewis\, and Joe Coc
 ker\, shares: “I really wasn’t sure I was going to get to the finish lin
 e on this album. I’m just seeking peace right now. I’m attracted to peac
 eful people\, places\, and things\, and I think the album reflects that.
  There is less urgency than in past projects. It is more relaxed and fun
 . I feel like I’ve returned to the reasons I got into music to begin wit
 h.” With the release of The Phoenix\, Euge Groove is looking forward to 
 hitting the road and playing a few of the cuts from the new album live. 
 “I am going out with a new objective\; having fun! I want to do shows be
 cause I want to\, not have to. Making music is an extremely selfish ende
 avor. You’re basically making music that you personally would like to li
 sten to. The fact that someone else shares my view of it the same way is
  an unexplainable high. Truly a gift from the universe that doesn’t go u
 nnoticed by me.” Artist Website: https://www.eugegroove.com\n\nTickets:
