THE SAUCE BOSS / Swamp Funk

Bill "Sauce Boss" Wharton has brought his swamp-funk, slide guitar-one-man band, and a pot of gumbo all across the US and to Canada, Europe, and Asia. Sauce Boss cooks gumbo while performing; serving up bowls to the audience at the end of the shows.  He has served well over 200,000 people for free at his legendary live shows.  Sauce Boss is the guy Jimmy Buffett sings about in "I Will Play for Gumbo". Wharton’s blues anthem, "Let the Big Dog Eat", has been covered by many, including Albert Castiglia. His version was #1 on the Roots Music Report for twelve weeks. The tune was also in Jonathan Demme's movie "Something Wild". Now, Bill’s music will be featured throughout the soundtrack in the documentary, “Jimmy Carter - Rock and Roll President”, debuting early in 2020.
