Euge Groove is the nickname of smooth jazz saxophonist Steven Eugene Grove.
A rather late-bloomer in the genre, Grove did not record his first solo album until 2000. Prior to that, he had replaced Richard Elliot in the Tower of Power when Elliot decided to pursue a solo career, and he also did session work with various pop acts, most noticeably the Miami girl group Expose. He has a sax solo on their #1 hit "Seasons Change," and another on their 1993 hit "I'll Never Get Over You (Getting Over Me)."
Grove adopted the name Euge Groove, which consists of a shortening of his middle name and a very frequent mispronunciation of his last. The name is presumed to be coined by fans who saw him perform in Europe.
Euge Groove's solo hits include "Sneak a Peek," "Slam Dunk," "Rewind" and "Livin' Large."
