The GrooveTones, a South Carolina blues and rock band, performed in front of a crowd of about 300 last Saturday as part of Street Music on Paris Avenue. The mild evening brought out music lovers young and old: Cute children ran around and danced while the adults mingled, drank beer and wine, and listened to the funky sounds of the band.
