Italian Funk. No Compromises.

It started with Francesco Coppola Bove, a home studio, and a microphone. No label, no plan. Just the idea that funk and soul could be recorded at home and still sound right.

Groove at Home grew from a solo experiment into a collective. Today it involves over 120 musicians from across Italy and beyond: singers, keyboardists, brass players, guitarists, people who grew up listening to the same records and play like it. The project stays independent, and it shows.

In summer 2025 we played our first festival date at the Nocera Jazz Festival. Around the same time we began working in the studio with Mario Biondi, Arabella Rustico and Francesca Tandoi, three of the most respected names in Italian jazz and soul.

In early 2026 we took the project to Europe: BIKO in Milan, Crazy Coqs in London, Das Wohnzimmer in Wiesbaden. Three nights in three cities. Each one sold out.

This summer we join the lineup at Kroton Jazz Festival, one of the more established jazz stages in southern Italy, alongside names like Andrea Di Battista and Vincent Garcia. Three nights.

From festival main stages to jazz club residencies, we bring the same obsessive attention to sound, arrangement, and the room. Every set is a living thing: music that breathes, a band that listens, and an audience that leaves wanting more.

Off stage, the reach speaks for itself: 40,000+ followers on Instagram, a 5.75% engagement rate well above industry average, and a viral video at 500K views. A community that travels with us, wherever the music goes.

The first studio album comes in 2027. Several tracks are already road-tested live. We're not in a rush.
