About:

Meet Robert Hubbard, the extraordinary drummer and founder of the celebrated All-Star band, Hubb’s Groove. Based in Northeast, Ohio, Robert has cultivated a unique musical experience that seamlessly blends Soul, Jazz, R&B, and a touch of Gospel. With a commitment to heartfelt performances, Hubb’s Groove delivers a smooth yet high-energy sound that resonates deeply with audiences, proving that music played from the heart truly reaches the heart. Founded in 1996 in Cleveland, Ohio, originally under the name “Moments Notice,” Robert rebranded the band as “Hubb’s Groove” in 2006, setting the stage for a dynamic musical journey. Over the years, the band has had the honor of sharing the stage with renowned artists such as Kirk Whalum, Jonathan Butler, Earth Wind & Fire, Wayman Tisdale, TONY TONE TONI, Will Downing, Randy Crawford, and Pieces of a Dream, showcasing their versatility and talent.

Hubb’s Groove has also collaborated with other notable musicians, including Alex Bugnon, Angela Bofill, Eric Roberson, Marcus Johnson, Mike Phillips, and Sean Jones, solidifying their reputation as a sought-after ensemble in the music scene. The band has caught the attention of media personalities, with FOX 8 News anchor Wayne Dawson declaring them his favorite band. Their accolades speak volumes, including the prestigious Cleveland Best Band award in 2019 and the honor of performing at Mayor Bibb’s inaugural ball. Additionally, Hubb’s Groove has been recognized as the Best Jazz Band at The Cleveland Music Awards for three consecutive years – 2022, 2023, and 2024. Mr. Hubbard was also recognized as a 2024 Jazzfest legend at Tri-C.

The talented members of Hubb’s Groove include James Blaque on bass, Matthew Horwich and Roger Maple on saxophone, George Granville and Gerrond Masson on keyboards, Robert Hubbard Jr. on drums, and vocalists Adrianna Miller and Mazhorell Johnson.
