G. Love and the Special Sauce will bring the funk all the way from the City of Brotherly Love when they hit Sydney for a Bluesfest sideshow next year.

20 years after the release of their self-titled debut album and eight years since their last live performance together, the original lineup is getting back together for a run of shows on the back of their 2014 album Sugar.

They’ll hit The Basement on Sunday April 5. Tickets go on sale Monday October 13 at 9am through Bluesfesttouring.com.au.
