G. Love Releases New Album THE JUICE
By: Kaitlin Milligan Jan. 17, 2020
Today, G. Love released his anticipated new album The Juice via Philadelphonic/Thirty Tigers. Co-produced and co-written with four time Grammy award-winner Keb' Mo', the electrifying new album also features a slew of special guests including Robert Randolph, Marcus King and Roosevelt Collier. G. Love has also released several animated videos for featured tracks including "Go Crazy", "SoulBQue" and "Shake Your Hair".
"I've never been the kind of guy who thinks he's going to change the world with his guitar," reflects G. Love. "But maybe I can write the kind of songs that give strength and encouragement to the people who are out there doing the work to make this planet a better place. Those are the people I want to lift up with my music."
The Juice finds G. Love reconnecting with his former Okeh Records label-mate Keb' Mo' to craft a unique sound that blends elements of blues, jazz, rock, funk and soul with hip-hop grooves and electronic beats. The album strikes a balance between the personal and political, illustrating both an appreciation for the simple joys in life (hear "Go Crazy" feat. Keb' Mo') and an obligation to speak out for justice and equality (listen to "The Juice" feat. King). Glide Magazine hails the album as "a fun record that's not overly goofy and a serious record that isn't depressing."
Over the last two decades, G. Love has established a reputation for being an unmatched artistic force who consistently delivers intoxicating, vibrant music that blurs the line between genre. He has garnered positive coverage from press including NPR Music, The New York Times, Paste Magazine, Relix, The Wall Street Journal and more. With a wildly diverse set of influences and a knack for reinvention, G. Love is at his most comfortable when pushing the envelope. In recent years, he has expanded his business outside of music to include everything from his own beer and hot sauce to a curated music festival in Massachusetts called The Cape Cod Roots & Blues Festival.
