Eric Krasno has posted a statement regarding his absence from a number of recent Lettuce shows. The guitarist, who also plays with Soulive, Pretty Lights Live Band and a number of other projects, put up a Facebook post that reads:

A few of you have noticed that I haven’t been at some of the Lettuce shows lately and I felt the need to explain why. Lettuce has had a huge year and the demand is at an all time high. I couldn’t be happier about this. Lettuce is a collective of best friends and it’s exciting for all of us to watch it succeed. The band has momentum now that can’t be stopped. In the past few years I have taken on a lot of new projects as a producer, writer and am now in the process of launching a new label. These ventures along with other bands and shows that I do from time to time make it hard for me to commit to every Lettuce show now that the band has become a full time touring machine. However, I will always be a part of a Lettuce and will still be doing select dates throughout this year and years to come. Long Live Lett!! ‪#‎Lett4Life‬
