KHUM INTERVIEW: Did You Know That the Brother of the Bass Player From G. Love & the Special Sauce Lives in Humboldt County?!?!!??

(AUDIO) Bill Prescott Shares the Special Sauce on KHUM
When you work in Humboldt media long enough, you get used to seeing the name Bill Prescott pop up — whether it’s on a floral marketing campaign, a local community board, or a photo caption on the Lost Coast Outpost. But there’s a side to Bill you might not know: he’s also the brother of Jimi Jazz, the longtime bassist for the iconic hip-hop blues trio G. Love & Special Sauce.
With the band heading to Humbrews in Arcata tonight, KHUM’s DJ Jordan sat down with Bill for a more personal conversation — about growing up with music, watching his brother tour the world, and why Humboldt feels like the kind of place artists keep coming back to.
You can catch Bill’s interview above, and then, if you’re feeling a little extra saucy, you can check out Jordan’s interview with the man himself — G. Love! Curator of special sauce! — below.
