Lake Street Dive's Crafty Retro Pop-Soul


Listen Later

Lake Street Dive brings the retro 70’s pop with R&B groove, combining light with dark in a crafty way. Formed in school at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, all five members can sing, and admit to being “a geeky bunch”, and “a bunch of nerds.” The band did a lot of co-writing on these songs - a new love for them, and for each tune, they carefully considered their arrangements, including deployment of vocoder. With topics that tackle climate change, and the inequalities between men and women – things that are obvious, but need to be restated, the full five-member band plays songs remotely from their new album, Obviously.

Set List: “Same Old News,” “Being a Woman,” “Hypotheticals”

Watch: "Same Old News"
