About Science Groove

Science Groove is a free, independent educational website about learning science with music, songs and memory tricks. It has no ads, no tracking and nothing for sale.

About the project

Science Groove is an independent, non-commercial project, hosted free of charge. The site was rebuilt from scratch in November 2026. All text and verses on it are written for it; we do not host other people's songs or recordings.

The history of this address

From the early 2000s, science-groove.org was the home of Science Groove, a Seattle band that set university-level science to music, led by artistic director Do Peterson with Greg Crowther, who also ran the website. The band released the albums My Dissertation (2002) and Muscles & Magnets (2004).

The address also hosted MASSIVE (Math And Science Song Information, Viewable Everywhere), a database of science and math songs started in 2004, and the website of the Science Songwriters' Association, founded in 1999 and inactive since 2011. MASSIVE later became SingAboutScience.org. You can read about all three on Find science songs and Write a science song.

We are not the band, the database or the association, and we have no connection with the people involved. Greg Crowther's own science songs and research are on his university pages, including a history of the band.

How the content is checked

• Science explanations are checked against open textbooks and reference pages, listed under "Sources" on each page.
• Research claims cite the original studies, including their limits.
• Every verse is original and set to a tune in the public domain.
