Episode 264: Adam "Shmeeans" Smirnoff of Lettuce

I’ve got Adam “Shmeeans” Smirnoff of Lettuce on the show this week, and he’s bringing the heavy funk vibes to Roadcase!!  Constantly evolving and exploring new boundaries, Lettuce has been at the forefront of funk both in the jam world and in more traditional lanes. Their newly released latest album, Lettuce with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, is a stunning representation of the melding of classical instrumentation with the funky grooves that Lettuce inhabits, and it’s a potent mixture.  Shmeeans is a chill dude with a vibe that is one of a super cool funk player, but is just as down-to-earth as it gets. He talks to me about coming up at Berklee School of Music where he met his future bandmates, and we talk about the atypical path of ascendance that Lettuce took to get to where he is today. This is a great conversation and I’m thrilled to have Shmeeans on the Pod!!  For more information on Roadcase:  https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.com Or contact Roadcase by email:  info@roadcasepod.com Roadcase theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer
