[FUNK] Lettuce itself is often thought of as superfluous, leafy filler that adds an annoying crunch to your sandwich or buys time between the cukes and tomatoes in your salad. But it’s not a fitting analogy for the Boston-based funk outfit of the same name, now in business for a quarter century and considered a forerunner to Buffalo-born Stax-jam compatriots, Soulive. Featuring known and revered quantities like Eric Krasno (guitar) and Neal Evans (keys), Lettuce has begun incorporating elements of classic hip-hop and bits of jammy psychedelia into its funk’n’roll blend, which remains a huge festival draw—designed to keep you on your feet and moving. Boogie the night away at the Tralf on Thursday, September 22.
