This eclectic band has been around since the early 1990s, when they came on the scene in Philadelphia with a loose, spontaneous mix of sounds that treated the hip-hop, R&B, and grunge conventions of the day with total creative freedom. Since then they’ve released numerous albums (plus several G. Love solo efforts), all with a different musical mix, but all with the same effortless sense of fun and way of combining old and new sounds. Tonight they play songs from their 2006 album, Lemonade. Opener: Makua, the stage name of Makua Rothman, a Hawaiian big wave surfing champion whose sound incorporates elements of reggae, rock, rap, and soul with a strong Hawaiian vibe. $52.
