GROEV
plus support
Whelan’s Upstairs • Tues 18th November 2025
Groev are making a stop at Whelan’s as part of their ‘Will We Go For One’ tour on Tuesday, 18th November.
It’s been a whirlwind year for the Galway-based band, and they are wrapping it up by heading out on their first national tour.
Groev (pronounced Grove) made up of -Joe Sweeney, Rory O’Regan, Jack Lennox, Evan, and Keagan Forde- have been playing pubs across Galway over the past year. They released their debut single ‘Ben and Jerrys’ at the start of summer. Since then, they’ve supported Jamie McIntyre and played Róisín Dubh and the GIAF Festival Garden.
Their latest single, Tara Grove, racked up 45k streams in its first month, was OceanFM’s Record of the Week, and even inspired a cocktail named after it. ‘Tara Grove ‘feels like a nostalgic hit and an instant earworm.
“With Tara Grove, they’ve delivered a track that feels like it belongs deep into a seasoned band’s discography, not just their second ever release… ‘Tara Grove’ is awarded a nice little 9 out of 10.” – Alan Robinson
The self-proclaimed “drinking band with a music problem” will be playing dates across Ireland, including stops at Róisín Dubh in Galway, Melody in Limerick and An Spailpín Fánach in Cork.
