lake street dive music free download Obviously. Having started out as a genre-bending indie outfit, Boston's Lake Street Dive have matured into sophisticated purveyors of vintage-inspired soul, funk, and adult contemporary pop. It's a sound that helped make 2018's Free Yourself Up such a delightful surprise, and one which they further perfect on their seventh album, 2021's thoughtfully ebullient Obviously. Produced with warm clarity by Mike Elizondo, the album again showcases the talents of lead singer Rachael Price, bassist Bridget Kearney, guitarist Mike "McDuck" Olson, and drummer Mike Calabrese. Also rejoining the group (having initially come aboard in 2017) is their not-so-secret weapon keyboardist/vocalist Akie Bermiss, whose jazzy piano chops and warm vocals help elevate the group's sound throughout. Particularly engaging is "Same Old News," an earthy duet between Price and Bermiss that brings to mind the classic '70s work of Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway. The band conjures equally potent vibes elsewhere, as on the romantic R&B anthem "Hypotheticals," and the '80s Phil Collins-style ballad "Anymore." There's also a palpable undercurrent of feminism and progressive social consciousness running throughout the album as Lake Street Dive wrestle with some of the issues their generation and the next seem to be coming to terms with. On "Making Do," Price sings, "Killer waves and riots/Coming to the coastline soon. I guess it's hard to be a human/It's еven harder to be not/Whеn you're making do with what you've got." That said, there's never a sense that Lake Street Dive are preaching with heavy hands, and cuts like the bluesy "Hush Money" and the lyrical "Nobody's Stopping You Now" have a universally relatable feeling. That they also evoke the classic album-oriented work of artists like Fleetwood Mac and Carly Simon speaks to Lake Street Dive's ever- deepening sense of songcraft. Bad Self Portraits. Bad Self Portraits is eclectic Boston band Lake Street Dive's third studio album, and the group's sixth release overall. Produced by Sam Kassirer (Josh Ritter, Erin McKeown), the album comes two years after the group's covers EP, Fun Machine. Rather than revisit that album's neat gimmick of a jazz-soul band covering contemporary pop songs, Lake Street Dive instead delve into a substantial batch of their own blue-eyed-soul and Southern rock-inflected originals. Once again, the album showcases lead singer Rachel Price's resonant, old-school singing, which is still the main reason to listen to Lake Street Dive. Of course, with her band backing her at various times with harmony vocals, jazzy trumpet, crunchy tube guitar riffs, and woody jazz basslines, there's always something rootsy and unexpected happening around her on Bad Self Portraits. There is a buoyant creativity to many of Lake Street Dive's arrangements, and cuts like "Bobby Tanqueray" and "Seventeen" reveal such time-tested influences as late-'60s Muscle Shoals-influenced soul and Dusty Springfield-esque pop.

Lake Street Dive Announces Two-Night Run At New Haven, CT’s Westville Music Bowl. Lake Street Dive will head to New Haven, CT’s Westville Music Bowl on Thursday, June 10th and Friday, June 11th for a two-night run of socially distant performances. Other upcoming Lake Street Dive live shows include an appearance at Moon Crush in Miramar, FL on April 29th and a three-night run at Lafayette, NY’s Bear & Skiff Orchards on June 4th, 5th, and 6th. The upcoming shows come in support of the band’s latest album, Obviously , released back in March. The album made its debut at #5 on the Billboard albums chart. Side Pony. Centered on the warm, highly resonant vocals of Rachael Price, Boston's Lake Street Dive began their career as an eclectic, adventurous quartet just as likely to play a twangy, Fleetwood Mac song or a Hall & Oates cover as any of their own soulful, jazz- and R&B-influenced originals. However, since their 2010 eponymous debut, Lake Street Dive, which also features guitarist/trumpeter Mike Olson, bassist Bridget Kearney, and drummer Mike Calabrese, have streamlined their approach, whittling their influences down to a handful of touchstones from guitar-soaked Southern rock to buoyant, dance-oriented old-school R&B. On the group's fifth full-length album and Nonesuch Records debut, 2016's Side Pony, they've honed their sound even further, zeroing in on a vintage-inspired, '60s soul aesthetic. Named after Kearney's hairstyle, and serving as an easy metaphor for the group's unpredictable creative choices, Side Pony was recorded in Nashville with producer Dave Cobb, who has previously worked with the likes of Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson, Shooter Jennings, and others. Purportedly, Cobb requested the band come to the sessions with song sketches, rather than fully composed pieces. Furthermore, he encouraged them to crate dive for vintage LPs from which to draw inspiration, a process that may have led the band to sample Major Lance's rare 1978 Motown-side "Love Pains" for their '70s disco-era soul-sounding track "Can't Stop." While there is plenty to admire about how closely Lake Street Dive hew to their vintage-sounding paradigm, they do take some interesting side-steps on their retro journey, jumping into the Beatles-meets-Janis Joplin-sounding "I Don't Care About You," and kicking out the jams on the fuzz-toned, psych-soul anthem "Hell Yeah." Ultimately, hooks abound on Side Pony and cuts like "Godawful Things," "Call Off Your Dogs," and "How Good It Feels," with their shimmery, echo-chamber, AM Radio vibe, stick in your head about as much as many of the classic sides they are attempting to match..
