Elf Lettuce is a hard-working, touring band whose music is as true to its early rock and blues roots as the band members are to their roots in the Midwest.  Upon moving to Madison in 2006, the group quickly garnered the respect of their musical peers.  This respect was perhaps most evident when Clyde Stubblefield, the original “funky” drummer for James Brown (and a myriad of other legendary artists), took notice of the group.  The band now enjoys tenure as Clyde’s supporting act every Monday, despite maintaining an average of fourteen performances per month as well. They’ve played at events such as the Feel Good Festival, Steel Bridge Songfest, Madison Harvest Festivals, The Copper Fountain Festival, and several other major Midwestern events and will commence work on their first full-length album in the winter of 2009.  In their improvisationally-friendly performances, their rapidly growing fan base can detect a strong roots-rock and blues presence with overtones of bluegrass, country, folk, jazz, and funk-laden melodies.  Expect to see the band performing at more festivals and venues in the Rocky Mountain and West Coast regions in the near future.  As always, the band members continue to attend a wide array of concerts and listen to a diverse variety of music in order to keep their sound evolving for their amazingly dedicated fan base.
