History

G. Love & Special Sauce is an American band formed in January 1993, when Philadelphia-raised singer-guitarist Garrett "G. Love" Dutton met drummer Jeffrey Clemens at a bar in Boston. Bassist Jim "Jimi Jazz" Prescott joined soon after, and the trio became the house band at The Plough and Stars in Cambridge, Massachusetts, before relocating to Dutton's hometown of Philadelphia. Their loose, laid-back sound blends blues, hip hop, rock, and soul. The 1994 self-titled debut on Okeh Records nearly went gold on the strength of the single "Cold Beverage," boosted by MTV rotation, and led to a slot on the H.O.R.D.E. tour. Later albums, including Coast to Coast Motel (1995), Yeah, It's That Easy (1997, featuring Dr. John), and Philadelphonic (1999), built a durable touring career. Notable trivia: the group served as house band for Comedy Central's Turn Ben Stein On (1999-2001), recorded a version of "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing" for a 2005 Coca-Cola Zero ad, and Dutton's later solo work on Jack Johnson's Brushfire Records label gave him a parallel singer-songwriter career.
