G. Love & Special Sauce is an American Hip-Hop Blues band known for its unique fusion of hip-hop, blues, funk, and soul.

Formed in 1993 in Philadelphia,  they quickly gained attention for their laid-back, groovy style and G. Love’s unique vocal delivery, blending rap-like spoken word with bluesy singing.

The band’s style has been described as a mix of “slacker blues” and “alternative hip-hop,” as they frequently incorporate elements of 90s hip-hop beats with classic blues rhythms. This has evolved to include more soul, R&B, and rock influences whilst retaining their laid-back vibe and clever lyrical play.

With over 5 years since they last played London, we can’t wait to invite back the legendary cult act.

Support on the night comes from New Orleans-born (now London-based) soul artist Acantha Lang. She is a Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter known for her powerhouse vocals and raw authenticity, drawing comparisons to Aretha Franklin and Gladys Knight.
