Symphony on the River: Missoula Symphony Orchestra with Guest, Lettuce

Grammy-nominated funk powerhouse, Lettuce will join the Missoula Symphony Orchestra for the 2nd Annual Symphony on the River. The evening will open with a special standalone performance by the Symphony before Lettuce joins them on stage for a full collaborative concert.
Known for their explosive live performances and masterful musicianship, Lettuce has spent more than two decades redefining modern funk. The band has earned a Grammy nomination, headlined major festivals around the world, and built a devoted following with groove-driven anthems like “Phyllis,” “Madison Square,” and “Mt. Crushmore.” Now, their high-energy catalog will be reimagined on a sweeping symphonic scale in collaboration with the Missoula Symphony Orchestra creating a one-of-a-kind concert experience under the big Montana sky.
Since 1954, the Missoula Symphony Orchestra and Chorale has brought live symphonic and choral music to Western Montana. Under Music Director Julia Tai, the organization continues to expand its artistic reach while supporting music education through University of Montana scholarships and regional school outreach.
“We’re so excited to work with Logjam on our second annual Symphony on the River this summer,” said Julia Tai. “It’s always a joy to work with musicians of different genres, and I’m sure our collaboration with the funk band Lettuce will create an unforgettable evening of music blending hip-hop, jazz, R&B, and rock with the powerful sound of a symphony orchestra!”
