Space Funk: Greg Scott

​If you missed SF R&B/funkster Greg Scott a while back at Yoshi's SF, Thursday's your chance to catch him at the Oakland location. Scott comes from a long line of blue-eyed soul singers--nothing wrong with that--and though his style's maybe more Hollywood/Vegas than juke joint, he's got a strong stage presence, some theatrical moves, and is a real crowd pleaser to boot. Most of his music edges toward the smooth side of funk, but he can play it rough too--as evidenced by the interstellar anthem "Funkanauts." Check out Scott's tunes here and peep ticket info here .
