Watch out leading men of Hollywood – Garrett Dutton could be moving in.

Dutton, the “G. Love” of G. Love and Special Sauce, may not be sure what kind of movie he would break into Hollywood with, but he has a good idea who he would star opposite.

“Maybe it would be like a romantic comedy, even though it’s not the type of movie I normally watch,” he says. “Me and Jennifer Lopez. Or me and Cameron Diaz would be pretty good.”

“Me and Jessica Biel,” he adds, after pausing to think.

Despite his affection for Hollywood starlets, Dutton isn’t the type to get lost in a piece of romantic cinema. He says he is more likely to be found watching movies such as “Goodfellas.”

Dutton is best known for his music, but he says he also likes to be involved in things unrelated to music. He has served as a commentator for ESPN during the X-Games and says he wouldn’t mind entering the world of acting.

“On stage I get to go out and be myself every night, but I also get to be a superhero version of myself,” he says. “I don’t act as a musician; it’s very different. I think it’s a really big talent to act as a character not yourself. I wouldn’t take that lightly.”

When Dutton is on stage, he plays what he calls hip-hop blues with bandmates Jimmy Prescott and Jeffrey Clemens, who make up the Special Sauce section of the band. Dutton says the name “Special Sauce” comes from a combination of drinks from his parents’ liquor cabinet and his moniker “G. Love” evolved out of his high school nickname of “G.”

He describes the band’s sound as “Johnny Hooker meets De La Soul meets Bob Dylan meets the Beastie Boys.”

Dutton serves as the vocalist, guitarist and harmonica player for the band, Prescott plays the acoustic bass and Clemens handles the drums. Their shows are a mix of material from all of their albums, with a higher concentration from their most recent album, as well as some improvisation.

“We do a real funky hip-hop show,” he says. “We try to keep it real funky and a loose, good time.”

Dutton says he most enjoys performing whatever new song he is working on, which is currently the song “Wildflowers.” He also likes to bring out some of the band’s older music, however.

“I really like playing this song called ‘This Ain’t Living’ off of the first record. It’s a nice, easy groove,” he says. “It’s always kind of a winner.”

G. Love and Special Sauce have a strong college following, Dutton says, although he thinks the audience generally contains people anywhere from the ages of 16 to 40. He says their music attracts partiers and the musically inclined.

“Our music is kind of deep as far as musicianship,” he says. “People who are musicians definitely like to check us out. We definitely have our own way of playing.”
