The GroovaLottos Back at Plimoth Patuxet
On Thursday, August 1, guests gathered around the Eel River Stage to welcome The GroovaLottos back to Plimoth Patuxet Museums for a free evening concert. Their performance is part of 2024's Indigenous Voices Series, made possible in part thanks to the generous support of the Town of Plymouth Promotions Fund and the Visitors Services Bureau.
Plimoth Patuxet welcomed community members from the South Shore to the Eel River Stage for an evening performance with The Groovalottos, a multi-Grammy nominated group of musicians.
The GroovaLottos emerged from the synergy of seasoned touring players and studio maestros, reshaping musical traditions into a dynamic fusion that transcends genres. The GroovaLottos are not just a band; they are trailblazers of the Thump & Soul sound. Citing a range of influences including the blues, Native American music, jazz and soul, The GroovaLottos craft music that resonates across genres. “We’re excited to be grooving at the museum again and pleased to be a part of their expansive programming,” said Mwalim DaPhunkee Professor, a founding member of the band, prior to the concert.
2024’s Indigenous Voices Series is a continuation of the Museum’s 2023 Indigenous Voices: Celebrating 50 Years of Plimoth Patuxet’s Wampanoag Indigenous Program. The goal of the series is to create opportunities for Indigenous performers from throughout the Eastern Woodlands region to connect with diverse audiences through free and low-cost public programming.
