Northeast Groovers, often known by their acronym, NEG, are a powerhouse in the world of Go-Go music, serving the beat-driven musical movement born and bred in Washington, D.C. With a history that dates back to the 1980s, the band has carved its niche in the genre through their distinct, heavily percussive sound that seamlessly blends funk, rhythm and blues, and old school hip-hop influences. Comparable to the likes of the seminal Go-Go band Trouble Funk, NEG is known for their high-energy live performances and an ability to keep the crowd moving through engaging call-and-response sequences that are quintessential to the Go-Go experience.

Their body of work showcases a dedication to the live music scene, with a number of their releases capturing the raw, infectious energy of their concert experiences, such as "5 Sisters - 7-2-23 - Live!" and "Annapolis Day 7-30-22 (Live)." Classic tracks like "Smashed My Homie (2010)" and newer offerings such as "Christmas In Northeast" and "C U Do It 4 daGram" represent their diverse approach to Go-Go, infusing timely themes and humor into their music. Northeast Groovers continue to embody the spirit and resilience of their musical heritage, bringing the unique D.C. sound to newer generations while celebrating the pulsating rhythms that define their community.
