Lettuce stopped into The Caverns in Pelham, TN back on September 13th to as part of their ongoing tour behind 2019’s Elevate. The band’s performance at the smaller, underground music venue that night featured a lengthy rendition of “Purple Cabbage”, one of the new originals that appeared on Elevate.
On Monday, the band premiered a high-def, multi-camera recording of their 13-minute performance of “Purple Cabbage” from The Caverns. This rendition opens up nice and spacey thanks to the eerie and futuristic notes shooting out of Nigel Hall‘s keys and synths. The rest of the band catches up to speed about 90 seconds in, after which the outfit cruises through the remainder futuristic funk track. Watch the performance below:
