G. Love and Special Sauce and Ozomatli, make up a huge Bluesfest triple bill.
Hailing from the streets of Philadelphia, G. Love and Special Sauce have toured with the likes of of Donavon Frankenreiter and Jack Johnson, and in the summer 2005, the band featured in an advertisement for the launch of Coca-Cola Zero, featuring their own unique version of the noted Coca-Cola advertising song I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing.
Los Angeles outfit Ozomatli have a lot to credit Carlos Santana with, having offered the band one of their early breaks as his opening act during his 1998 Supernatural tour. The nine piece outfit have since gone from strength to strength having received a Grammy Award in 2002 for 'Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album, played at the 2004 Latin Grammy Awards, featured on Sex In The City and Weeds, played at Coachella, South by Southwest, WOMAdelaide, Egypt, Nepal and most recently on Late Night with Conan O'Brien.
This tour is guaranteed to be a blisteringly fun night of hip-hop blues, island-vibe roots rock and street-salsa funk mash-ups!
