For more than two decades, Lettuce has brought a new vitality to classic funk, matching their smooth and soulful grooves with a hip-hop inspired urgency and mastery of beat. Their fourth studio album Crush was released late last year to critical acclaim and is available for purchase via iTunes. Kicking off another groundbreaking year for the funk favorites, the band is pleased to announce they will be hosting the inaugural Fool's Paradise funk festival in St. Augustine, Florida on April 1 & 2.

Fool's Paradise is a funk-fueled beach extravaganza taking place in the heart of one of America's most historic cities, St. Augustine. The event will be held at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre and features two explosive sets from Lettuce. Other acts on the lineup include GRiZ, Vulfpeck, and Chris Robinson's Soul Revue. Fool's Paradise brings bands to the beach for two full days of genre-bending music, artist-led excursions, musical workshops, yoga, and activities with your favorite musicians in a destination event like no other. Camping options, VIP packages, and tickets are available now: FoolsParadiseFL.com.

Daily lineups are here! Friday, April 1 will feature Lettuce, GRiZ, and Goldfish, as well as late night performances from Vulfpeck and Break Science. Saturday, April 2 will feature Lettuce, Chris Robinson's Soul Revue, Vulfpeck, The Nth Power, and late night performances from Goldfish and Fools of Funk (TBA). Artist excursions, group activities, and more to be announced in the coming weeks.

Lettuce is also embarking on a nation wide tour kicking off tonight in Charleston, SC. In recent years, the band has watched their fanbase expand as they've hit bigger and bigger stages and earned their name as a can't-miss festival act.
