In November 2018, future funk pioneers Lettuce checked off a major item on their bucket list by collaborating with the Colorado Symphony to perform 90+ minutes of music from their expansive catalog with a full symphony orchestra. The performance at the esteemed Boettcher Concert Hall at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts has been encapsulated in a live album and concert film. Lettuce with the Colorado Symphony will be available on DVD, CD, a 3-disc LP collection, digital streaming platforms, and Dolby Atmos for a revolutionary sound experience on February 28, 2025.\n\nLettuce worked with the Colorado Symphonys Chief Artistic Director, Tony Pierce, to arrange the bands repertoire quickly and precisely. Price got together with drummer Adam Deitch, where Deitch expressed his vision of the arrangements and he efficiently executed the groups dream symphonic funk sound. The vision is evident in the opening song “Mt. Crushmore” where Lettuce horns Ryan Zoidis (saxophones) and Eric “Benny” Bloom (trumpet) usher in a monumental fanfare that is soon joined by full brass and string sections displaying the grandeur for the night ahead.
