After finishing up another highly successful summer full of major festival appearances, The Werks are back to their rigorous touring schedule in support of their latest studio release MagicAnyone familiar with the veteran Ohio-based jam band knows to expect the unexpected; with a wildly diverse catalog of originals and unique covers. Friday night's show at Headliners Music Hall in Lexington, KY was no exception, as The Werks busted out a flawless, yet hysterical take on Isaac Hayes' "Chocolate Salty Balls" for the first time since 2012.

Many will recall this song via South Park's "Chef" in 1998, and it's safe to say that Chris Houser (guitar/vocals) did this one justice. Thankfully, Charles Izenstark (IZEoftheworld) was on hand to capture the magic in its entirety. Check out the video footage below, and head over to the band's official Facebook page for all of your latest Werks' updates.
