PIJF Headliner, American funk icons LETTUCE takes to the Liberty Theatre stage with an electric fusion of sound, energy, and style. Known for their electrifying live shows and decades of groove-driven brilliance, this one is set to be a night to remember. Opening the night is the genre-bending jazz/hip-hop collective PAREIDOLIA featuring Perth’s own hip-hop force ZERO EMCEE; and the DJ closes the night with a dynamic set, blending the rare and unknown with the stone-cold classics whilst keeping the vibes warm and funky.

Lettuce Bio

Lettuce is (a) the prime ingredient in a salad, (b) slang for cash, (c) a green herb that can be smoked, (d) a genre-busting six-member musical collective formed in 1992 by four alumni of the prestigious Berklee College of Music, or (e) all of the above.

If you answered “e”, then you’re in on the sheer magic of a band that both feeds the rich history of funk music and combines it with strains of hip-hop, rock, psychedelia, jazz, soul, jam, go-go and the avant-garde. The Grammy Award–nominated six-piece is comprised of Adam Deitch (drums, percussion), Adam “Shmeeans” Smirnoff (guitar), Erick “Jesus” Coomes (bass), Ryan Zoidis (alto, baritone, tenor sax, Korg X-911), Eric “Benny” Bloom (trumpet, horns), and Nigel Hall (vocals, Hammond B-3, Rhodes, clavinet, keyboard).
