For more than two decades, Lettuce has brought a new vitality to classic funk, matching their smooth and soulful grooves with a hip-hop-inspired urgency and mastery of beat. Combining the grittiness of The Meters, with the harmonic textures of Herbie Hancock, and the hyper-tempo funk of live James Brown, Lettuce is one of the funkiest bands on the planet.
Covering anyone from A Tribe Called Quest to Tears for Fears, Lettuce takes the foundations of funk and brings it to a whole new level. They put on a smokin’ show that’ll impress anyone including Bootsy Collins who hailed them as having "that 'Sounds Like A Party To Me' funk goin' on."
