We caught up with G. Love (real name Garrett Dutton) down in Austin at SXSW, where the soul-rockin’ blues maestro was catching some downtime next to a river between performances. In our sit-down session, Garrett discusses the importance of recording live, getting the guys back together and how it doesn’t matter how people make their music as long as they’re giving people a good time and an escape from the daily struggle. Check it out below, as well as an exclusive performance of “Bad Girl Baby Blues” – only on Crave!
