Cook, the band’s ninth full-length studio album and the first since 2022’s Unify, is due out on December 3rd via the band’s own Lettuce Records. Featuring funky lead single “Gold Tooth”, a soulful cover of Keni Burke‘s R&B classic “Rising to the Top”, the latest hip-hop-tinged single “Breathe”, and more, the album expands on the band’s wide-ranging sound, marking the group’s most stylistically varied project to date.
“This record is a little more three-dimensional than our past albums,” Adam Deitch said of Cook. “It shows a lot more sides to the band, exploring further depths of production and arrangements.”

Lettuce also recently announced the launch of Lettuce Crush wine brands in collaboration with Aquila Cellars, along with a recipe book featuring pairings to be included with the vinyl album and available in digital form. The wine was brought to life by Bloom and Zoidis’ wine distribution company, Benny & Zoid Selections, who made it accessible to purchase nationwide online. “Music and food are very related,” said Deitch. “Use the wrong ingredients in either and you can ruin the sound and the meal.”
