Detailed Description Containing Key Facts: "Shrug Off Love" is a track from the British band Little Barrie, known for their distinctive blend of blues-infused garage rock, psychedelic soul, and raw funk. Comprising Barrie Cadogan (guitar/vocals), Lewis Wharton (bass), and Virgil Howe (drums, until his passing), the band developed a unique sound praised for its authentic retro feel yet contemporary edge. "Shrug Off Love," from their 2014 album Shadow, features Cadogan's characteristic fuzzy, fuzzed-out guitar riffs, a tight, driving rhythm section, and his cool, soulful vocal delivery. The song embodies their gritty, no-nonsense rock 'n' roll aesthetic, often evoking the sounds of 1960s blues-rock bands, classic soul, and surf rock. Little Barrie's music is highly regarded for its raw energy, impeccable musicianship, and their ability to craft infectious, blues-based grooves that translate powerfully in live settings
