Groovesalad has been crafting genre-defying music since early 2001, when a chance meeting brought veteran composer Robert Mirabelle in contact with lyricist Thomas Eckert and engineer Daniel Dashnaw. Singer/performer Stephanie Westbrook was soon to follow, sending the four careening into a wormhole of collaborative creative effort.
Groovesalad songs often seem to fit in either a number of genres or none at all. A love of diverse styles of music combined with a drive to push sonic boundaries yields original tunes that contain elements of jazz, pop, rock, and world music. More often then not, these elements are seamlessly infused with cutting-edge electronica to create a sound that is at once intriguingly foreign yet oddly familiar. The juxtaposition of opposites, and the integration of seemingly disparate influences, is at the heart of the Groovesalad artistic movement.
Groovesalad.com was built by Mirabelle, with content direction and written materials from Eckert. The site provides a release platform for groovesalad’s music, and a spawning ground for an ever-developing “groovesalad concept.”
