Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

'Cuz It's Good For You

Any healthy diet should include an appropriate amount of greens and roughage. Similarly, any balanced musical regimen ought to feature significant doses of high-octane, ass-shakin’ grooves. With that in mind, the Seven Days Surgeon General heartily endorses funkdafied supergroup Lettuce. Composed of members from The Robert Randolph Band, Soulive and Rustic Overtones, this all-star septet will set your blood a-flowin’ and quicken your pulse. Simply put, they’re good for what ails you. Catch them this Thursday, June 11, at the Waterfront Park Bayou Funk tent supporting N’awlins’ funk legends Porter Batiste Stoltz as part of the Burlington Discover Jazz Festival. Big Sam’s Funky Nation opens the show.
