Atomic Groove

We absolutely LOVE doing special events for organizations that reflect peace and love and kindness ….and kids! We were so happy that Kids for Peace invited us back this year (we did their fundraiser in 2024, too) to be a part of their 20th Gala Fundraiser at the lovely Alila Marea Resort in Carlsbad back in March.

With a mission statement of ”Uplifting Our World Through Love and Action”, serving this event was so very rewarding and so very much in alignment with what Atomic Groove is all about. This enthusiastic crowd of kind supporters immediately packed the dance floor after their generous fundraising program finished up with a resounding bang, and Atomic Groove joyfully took the stage.

Our 6 piece version of the band played an energetic and uplifting set, made extra special by the cameo appearance of two Performer Studentz from the Carrie Weiland Fitness/AG Fly Girlz Dance Class, Kirsten and Cindy. See Kirsten's testimonial below.

Check out the AG Fly Girlz Dance Class that both Kirsten and Cindy are a part of, open to all levels! MB Fit Studio

And keep AG in mind for your special event- fundraisers, weddings, company functions, retirement & birthday parties and more. We still have some summer availability and are now booking into the Fall, holiday season and into 2027.

See you at our next public event on Friday, June 19th at our “Hello Summer/CAF Benefit” Dance Party Happy Hour at the Belly Up, 5-8p, benefiting the Challenged Athletes Foundation.

"As a longtime supporter of both Kids for Peace and Atomic Groove, it was incredibly meaningful to see these two powerful forces come together at the Kids for Peace 20th Anniversary Gala held at the wonderful Alila Marea. Kids for Peace uplifts the world through love in action and creates an elevated, inclusive community wherever they go and Atomic Groove is beautifully aligned with that same mission! Through their unique selection and renditions of dance music, whether it’s at their beloved Friday night Happy Hour Dance Parties at Belly Up or at special fundraiser events like Kids for Peace’s, they bring people together in joy, connection, and celebration on the dance floor.

Though I attended as a member of the Kids for Peace advisory board, I also was overjoyed to be able to perform at the gala with Atomic Groove as a Performer Student from The AG Fly Girlz dance classes! Being a part of the collaboration of love and peace that both Kids for Peace and Atomic Groove embodies mean so much to me and these organizations I so deeply champion. Guests packed the dance floor in unity from the very first note AG played and a beautiful event was up leveled into something truly unforgettable by having AG be a part of it. On behalf of the entire Kids for Peace team, thank you for (once again) bringing your AG good vibez to our event!"

Coming off of our FUN-tastic appearance at the 45th Annual Fiesta del Sol Music Festival, we got right back into our HAPPY Friday night groove at our "Summer Happy Place" Dance Party Happy Hour at Belly Up. 🙂

A euphoric dance HAPPY crowd with about 20 groups of birthday celebrations (so many Geminis!!!), all smiling big, singing exuberantly and dancing with wild abandon. That's the very definition of HAPPY!

We featured our enthusiastic AG guests, AG Conga Girl Monette and AG soul vocalist Mark Jones.

The ever-evolving Performer Studentz from the Carrie Weiland Fitness/AG Fly Girlz Dance Class took the stage for a few songs with their always happy disposition, showcasing their continuing progress as performing dancers ala the AG Fly Girlz.

Atomic Girl Carrie, the AG Fly Girlz and the entire AG band consistently over-delivers with good vibez, as per usual, at these Happy Hours, for the past 20+ years! Never ever the same show.... ALWAYS the same FUN!
