This year, the 3rd Annual Love Groove Music Festival went virtual due to the ongoing pandemic. The music extravaganza boasts itself as the perfect place for rising Baltimore artists to showcase their talent. Artists in genres like jazz, rock, hip-hop, neo-soul, pop and blues kept attendees grooving in their living rooms. The proceeds from this event went toward an artist fund along with Our Victorious City Foundation (OVCF), a Baltimore-based organization that provides resources to inner city youth. For more information on the festival, visit online at www.lovegroovemusicfestival.com.
