FRI. 01.10.2014 · 09:00PM · $12 Bill “Sauce Boss” Wharton brings his high energy, gumbo stirring, swamp funk to Skipper’s Smokehouse in Tampa on Friday November 8th. Florida born bluesman/chef Wharton rolls in from a summer of touring the Midwest, Northeast, and Canada. For those who don’t know about the Sauce Boss, he brings his own hot sauce to the gig, and he cooks gumbo while smoking his slide guitar. At the end of the Show, everyone gets a bowl. Now he adds some new flavors to the “stew”. Sauce Boss not only plays slide, sings his tamales off, makes gumbo, and feeds everybody… he will also be playing a drum kit with his feet. “You take that 53 Telecaster, pump it through that 48 Fender amp, add a bass rig, mix in some drums, all simmered down over some funky swamp blues, and smothered with gumbo, and you got a recipe for the largest one-man band on the planet.”
