Lettuce is a renowned funk band that has been grooving and evolving since their formation in 1992. The members met at the Berklee College of Music and united over a shared love for legendary funk artists like Earth, Wind & Fire and Tower of Power. They chose the name "Lettuce" as a playful nod to their request to play in Boston bars, asking venue owners if they could "let us play." Over time, Lettuce has become a formidable force in the modern funk scene, known for their blistering live performances and a sound that fuses elements of hip-hop, soul, jazz, and psychedelic music.

With a career that spans three decades, Lettuce has consistently pushed the boundaries of funk music with their energetic style and innovative soundscapes. Their discography boasts several studio albums, live recordings, and an array of remixes, highlighting their versatility and creative dynamism. Notable recent releases include "VIBE," "Resonate," and "Elevate," each illustrating the band's commitment to keeping the essence of funk alive while exploring new musical territories. The band's prowess is not only captured in their studio albums but also in the vibrant energy of live albums like "Live in Amsterdam." Their influence in the genre is reflected through collaborations and remixes, with tracks such as "Remember the Children (Flamingosis Remix)" and "House of Lett (jackLNDN Remix)" showcasing the cross-pollination between funk and contemporary electronic music. Lettuce continues to be a staple of the festival circuit, earning accolades and a dedicated following with their infectious grooves and masterful musicality.
