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

Salt Lake City road trip to see Lake Street Dive?
Stay in the Avenues neighborhood—tree-lined streets with actual character, close enough to downtown but removed from the noise. For dinner, Lazy Dog in Sugar House serves exceptional Colorado lamb and maintains a wine list that doesn't insult your intelligence. Spend an afternoon at the Natural History Museum of Utah in Red Butte Canyon; the building itself is architecturally stunning and the collection gives real context to the landscape you're actually standing in. The city's proximity to actual mountains matters when you've got downtime.
