The King of Pop comes to Clayton's Grove for the season opener. Three dynamic vocalists, a powerhouse rhythm section, and a horn section that doesn't quit — Foreverland has been honoring MJ's musical legacy since 2009. Thriller, Billie Jean, Beat It, Man in the Mirror. Pure joy from start to finish.
The Memorial Day weekend closer — an 8 to 11-piece Northern California powerhouse with four impressive lead singers and a live horn section. Wildly popular from Napa to Lake Tahoe, Take 2 plays classic hits, Motown, rock, and today's modern favorites. The kind of set that keeps people on their feet for the full two and a half hours.
The name tells you everything — a band that doesn't take itself too seriously and has an absolute blast on stage. One of San Francisco's most in-demand dance acts, with clients from Apple and Google to major Bay Area weddings. Funk, soul, 60s Motown, 80s new wave, and today's hits. All night long.
A nine-piece party machine with a four-piece horn section that's been keeping dance floors packed all over the Bay Area for over 15 years. Classic soul hits, tributes to Tower of Power, Sly & The Family Stone, and Stevie Wonder. A midsummer Saturday soul set under the trees — this is exactly what The Grove was made for.
Brothers Russ and Scott Bell have spent two decades building one of Northern California's premier live acts. They've shared the stage with Dwight Yoakam, Jason Aldean, and Rascal Flatts — and brought their original country, rock, and Americana sound to a loyal regional following. Clayton's country night is going to deliver.
Winners of the KFOX Radio "Best Cover Band in the Bay Area" award and the 2025 Metro Silicon Valley Readers Poll. A 10-piece juggernaut from Los Gatos — Rolling Stones, Earth Wind & Fire, Springsteen, Tower of Power, Bruno Mars. The Grove's big dance party night. Come ready to move.
Hotel California. Desperado. Take It Easy. Life in the Fast Lane. The Eagles catalog is one of the greatest in American music — and Midnight Flyer, one of the Bay Area's premier tribute acts, honors it with note-for-note fidelity and tight vocal harmonies. A warm August Saturday in an intimate grove is exactly the right place for this music.
The Bay Area's favorite party band closes out the 2026 season in style. Pride & Joy SF has been bringing crowds to their feet for 25+ years with electrifying showmanship, choreography, and the timeless sounds of Motown and R&B — Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, the works. Stay until the last note.
Main Street is right next to The Grove — great restaurants within easy walking distance. Grab dinner before the show or a drink after. And if you're driving in from across the county, Cap's in Brentwood is worth building the whole evening around. You'll run into the same crowd at these shows anyway.
The Downtown Park Grove is at 6100 Main St. in the heart of Clayton — a small, walkable downtown that's worth exploring before the show. Parking is limited, so walking or carpooling is strongly recommended. Chairs and blankets may be set out after 4:00 PM on concert days.
