It's hard to put your finger on the mercurial Sauce Boss. Somewhere between a country preacher, and an auctioneer lives a musician, a chef, a raconteur, a purveyor of gourmet hot sauce, a songwriter, and a standup comedian.

Bill Wharton, (Sauce Boss), is the guy Jimmy Buffett sang about in his song "I Will Play for Gumbo." Wharton’s anthem, “Let the Big Dog Eat” is included on Buffett’s “Late Night Menu at the Margaritaville Cafe” album. Albert Castiglia released his cover of the tune, and it hit #1 on blues charts. "Let the Big Dog Eat" has also appeared in the movies, “Something Wild” (Jonathan Demme), and the Rock Doc, “Jimmy Carter Rock and Roll President.” This tune and sixteen other works in the documentary earned Wharton “‘Best Original Score” from the Los Angeles Film Awards.

The Sauce Boss kicks it up a notch when he brings Extra Sauce with him. Veteran drummer, Brett Crook, and guitar phenom, Neal Goree, both add plenty of fire to heat up this musical gumbo. This band ROCKS!!! Sauce Boss new CD “The Sauce”

“The Sauce” is a tour de force. Solo acoustic, funky one man band, and the trio, Extra Sauce (with Neal Goree, guitar, and Brett Crook, drums.) From the heights of blues rock to acoustic whisperings, this album takes you far away. “The Sauce” was a finalist at the 2025 International Blues Challenge in Best Self-Produced CD category.
