About Lake Street Dive
Lake Street Dive is a Boston-based funk and soul band that somehow keeps getting better instead of calcifying into nostalgia. They started in the mid-2000s as a street busking group, which explains why their sound has this infectious, go-anywhere energy that doesn't care about genre lanes. Their 2013 album Bad Self Portraits introduced them to a wider audience, but it was 2015's Side Pony that made them unavoidable—tracks like 'Good as Hell' became the kind of song people who don't normally listen to funk actually sought out. Ssinger Rachael Price has a voice that can shift from breathy and intimate to absolutely commanding without breaking a sweat. The band treats every song like it's a negotiation with the listener, building grooves instead of just playing them, making arrangements that breathe and shift. They're serious musicians who refuse to sound serious about it.
Shows feel like a really good party where the musicians somehow have more fun than the audience, which is impossible but they manage it anyway. Price commands the stage without trying. Crowds move without being told to.
Known for Good as Hell, It Happened to Me, Bad Self Portraits, Side Pony, What Would a Wise Man Do
Lake Street Dive + Atlanta
Lake Street Dive has a solid track record in Atlanta. They last rolled through the Tabernacle in October 2025, bringing their brand of funk-inflected pop to the venue's intimate-yet-capable space. The band's ability to shift between groovy bass lines and infectious hooks tends to land well with Atlanta crowds who appreciate musicianship that doesn't take itself too seriously.

Live Music in Atlanta
Atlanta's music DNA runs deep through funk, soul, and hip-hop, which gives Lake Street Dive natural common ground here. The city's always had a soft spot for bands that blend genres without announcing it—from OutKast's genre-colliding approach to the current crop of producers who treat funk as a foundation rather than pastiche. Lake Street Dive fits that lineage.
Atlanta road trip to see Lake Street Dive?
Stay in Buckhead or Virginia Highland for the neighborhood feel — tree-lined streets, good restaurants, walkable enough to actually enjoy yourself. For dinner, Sotto Sotto does excellent Italian in a no-fuss basement setting, or Rathbun's for steak if you want something more formal. Spend an afternoon at the High Museum of Art, then grab drinks at The Eagle, which has the kind of dark-wood-and-whiskey vibe that actually works. Catch a Braves game at Truist Park if timing lines up. The food scene here is legitimately good without being try-hard about it.
