Lake Street Dive has always been Absolute Fire🔥✌🏽💃🕺✊🏽

[@rlopulalan]

Brilliant bass line by Bridget Kearny. Punchy, groovy and full of flavour.

[@Wiley_Coyote]

She wrote the song too.

[@marvinpues]

Agree here too! She is a gem, and just love this band. I recently listened to a long interview with Bridget on The Working Songwriter podcast. Was sad when it was done because she's so creative and engaging.

[@peterstephen1562]

Yes, agreed. There is a nice balance of the groove riff and second melody like Jameson.

[@Udugirl]

Bridget is 🔥🔥🔥 A huge part of their sound. Love it & them.

[@DoctoRhythm]

Bridget is an absolutely brilliant, groove-gifted musician.

[@Dan6erous]

For those of you who are just discovering LSD from this performance, you are in for a treat. You've got some listening to do - enjoy!

[@tomrowe809]

Grammy award please, no need to look further. There is no other band in their league. Lake Street Dive rules !

[@chasbodaniels1744]

I love this band, and am rooting for this song to push them into the next level of success. That said, I’d hate for them to sell out to slick commercialized music.

[@xenonmob]

the vocalist looks part black

[@lawbinson]

Great to see Lake Street Dive and Colbert continue their love for each other. I remember them on the Report.

[@bretfoltz7737]

So I checked this band after I saw this. Never heard of these guys before Mr. Colbert said they were one of his favorite bands. “Hypotheticals “ is a fantastic song by these guys. I asked Alexa to shuffle songs from these guys and I listened to really good music for over an hour. They deserve your support if you are a fan of great music.!!!!

[@jazzycrescendo9465]

I love Hypotheticals! I don't think I could ever get tired of that song.

[@bretfoltz7737]

@@jazzycrescendo9465 I am with you!!! I got a plan A, and a plan B, and if absolutely necessary, I got a plan C. I love that line so much. Their music is just amazing. When I cook breakfast on Sunday morning, I play them and I do this almost every week.

[@photostu]

Go back and listen to Bad Self Portraits, the entire album and discover them from the ~start :)

[@sean-in-wnc]

They're so damn good. I got lucky to have been clued into them right when they were first coming into the scene. One of those rare bands who sounds both totally different from when they started, and yet somehow just the same. They've grown and evolved, but always remained themselves. Musicians' music... for the people. Which is an incredibly rare and beautiful combination.

[@hartman601]

Check out philharmonik. I get a similar vibe. Love both.

[@shanep3016]

The world needs more people dancing with strangers 'til they're not a stranger anymore!

[@cathywitherspoon2016]

Like we did in the 70s.❤❤❤💃💃💃🎶

[@dannyburleigh1]

She's a real good BASS PLAYER! 😎

[@IanFay]

She also writes most of the songs for the band!

[@FranklinOPT]

Indeed. Bridget was inspired to write this song when she attended a square dancing event. BC is classically trained, experienced in jazz and down to Earth.

[@david.j9.rabbithole808]

Yep. You should watch her slay on the upright bass.

[@charlenemack7040]

I’ve never heard of this band in my entire life today is June 19, 2024. She has a lovely beautiful voice. I guess I’m a fan now!😊

[@joerock8705]

Check out an older song they do called, You Go Down Smooth. Just fantastic. I’ve been a fan for 10-15 years.

[@stevecolbert9518]

o shut up! They are my fav! Listen to good kisser and Hypotheticals. and when you can see them live. rachel is such a power house with her voice. and brittany is awesome too!

[@ameliaautrey5861]

I heard a song on Pandora and thought "Wow!". Been following them ever since. Welcome to the club.

[@rawrec]

Listen to promises promises on KZbin. Early stuff that shows their talent for performing live. They throw it down anywhere

[@BrewDroneServices]

You've been missing out! Check out all of their stuff. It all started with "I want you back" that they sang on the sidewalk over 10 years ago for me. Been following them every since. Their cover of Shania Twain's "You're Still the One" is one of my favorites too. Rich Girl and so many others though.

[@ashmcdaniel5503]

I got to see Lake Street Dive about a decade ago in Knoxville. What a GREAT concert! Been following them ever since. Glad to see them on The Late Show.

[@NediSafa]

It was delightful to see the members of the band mixing with lake street dive and having a fun time.

[@kevinmcconnell3641]

Over 15 years ago I was out singing karaoke at my local karaoke bar. Well I was standing at the bar dancing with myself when a very attractive 27ish woman walked up and asked me if I would like to dance, of course this early 50’s guy said yes. We danced about a half dozen songs. I caught the eye of a late 20’s karaoke friend who gave me a WTF look, to which I shrugged I asked the young lady why she picked this old guy when there were lots of guys her age there, she said, “you looked safe”. I wasn’t sure whether to be insulted, or pleased.

[@ameliaautrey5861]

Be pleased. It was a HUGE compliment.

[@leavingitblank9363]

When she just wanted to dance and not look like she was flirting.

[@angelariebli4843]

Lake Street Dive is a KILLER band....great discography:))

[@mtntuber]

They are what we old folks call "All gussied up." They are looking and sounding amazing.

[@ryandhall]

I may be dating myself a little bit, but if there was a song that was tailor made for a Soul Train line, it's this one.

[@FranklinOPT]

Bridget wrote the song and her bass line evokes James Jamerson, the iconic bassist on many recordings from Motown Records.

[@debbiechang5781]

My daughter introduced me to this amazing band a year or so ago. I’m happy to see such talent emerging in a time when it seems hard to find. I think I was spoiled after growing up in the 60’s and 70’s when there was so much amazing music available! Great stuff. I’m happy to see them getting more attention on bigger platforms. Well deserved! 🌺✌️

[@MK-su6eg]

Your daughter turned you on to some great music! Its in both of your genes, i myself grwe up in the 60s, 70s, and this has that vibe to it, music that made you feel good! Aloha from Hawaii

[@jjmorris1890]

I concur! 62 years old and still dancing with strangers. This band has loads of analog talent!

[@MarkReviews]

I have been a fan for years, and I love seeing them on a big national stage like this…One of the most legitimately talented groups out there right now and they deserve to blow up! Congrats on the tour, the new album…all of it!

[@joywiggins]

Love the band singing and dancing too. Exactly what we need America

[@eddie_77]

I'll be honest, never heard of them but for crying out loud, they sound amazing! I am a new fan for life.

[@tcuster55]

Lots if depth there, check out their earlier albums

[@muppetsstoogesfan1]

They do the theme song for Somebody Feed Phil, the Netflix food travel show created by Phil Rosenthal. One of my all time fav bands.

Rachel and Bridget are the Jordan/Pippen of pop music. Iconic duo.

[@carmelacastaldo9761]

I think dance with a stranger is my favorite on the album. but I love the whole album and I asked 107.1 to listen and play it and they are playing it in the morning great job............................

[@lucybluemoon51]

Good God that bass line.

[@rawrec]

Exactly!

Indeed.

[@daniellemeyer3801]

Only found them two years ago and ive been pretty obsessed since then. I love their sound

So happy to see them on the Late Show! Love this group!!

[@MikeysClassicRockPop]

Great band! Great song, we should all take this thought to heart.

@triple_sec0 ❤❤

Hallelujah! Real, good music can still happen today! I love it! All smiles and love…… Thank you Lake Street Dive!!

[@mickjen]

Saw them live at The ‘Vous in TFMA in 2011. They are the real deal and a live spiritual experience.

[@seanryan3020]

Forgot they've been around that long. I first heard of them in 2017. Got into them in 2020. Saw them with my wife at Red Rocks in 2022.

[@BrewDroneServices]

wow, that was early. I first saw them in that YT video of them singing "I want you back" on the sidewalk. That was probably 2012 or so. Been following them ever since, but have not seen them live yet!

Love them ❤love her voice. 🎶😍

Their version of Lola is the best.

Just saw them this morning!!!! What a GROOVE! Keep them😮 coming

[@bobplamondon5589]

Saw them at the Ottawa Jazz Festival on Jun 27. The lead singer has elements in her voice that combine Bonnie Raitt and Amy Winehouse. This band is on fire. Love them. They will be superstars.

[@douglasalan5783]

I definitely hear echoes of Amy W.

[@chriscavanaugh1001]

Imagine the fun being at one of their live shows and this song comes on... pure joy!

[@oldsoul1187]

This will go straight up the the charts. The sensational soulful sound of the beautiful Rachael Price may finally be discovered by the masses. I know her as the daughter of the composer and conductor Tom Price.

[@icerag]

Thank you Colbert for regularly featuring great artists such as LSD. Many more years of awesome music, pls. LSD!

[@tekman1494]

This is the first time I heard of them ,I dont know why. I tthink the singer is magnificent. The whole band is great and I will follow them from now on.Thank you for such beautiful song.

[@surlechapeau]

I can't wait to see them in concert in September!!!!🎉❤

[@GaryBoren]

Have been a fan of Rachel and Lake Street dive for many years. I miss the trumpet player / Guitar Player from the old days. I hope he is kicking ass on his own.

[@thegreeneggman]

Seen them 8 times in concert across a tristate area. Can't wait for the new tour! Album is shaping up to be fab!

[@FranklinOPT]

They were great in Saratoga Springs. We sat about 15 rows back, looking directly at Bridget. The grooves were great!

[@zamberlam2]

What a nice swing!

[@thomashyatt]

Saw them in Baltimore a few years ago. One of my favorite groups of all time.

[@GinaFloresMolinaLateShow]

(Left, right, front, side Find somebody new and then Take them by the hand And say you understand) Look around the room Find someone's eyes that are new to you Might be a child's or a grandfather's Anyone will do Go say "Hello", "How do you do?" Listen to their answer, commiserate Say "I feel that way sometimes too" And "Would you like to dance?" And if they say "No" that's okay But if they say "yes", take their hand Lead them out on the dance floor Listen to the music play Open up your whole heart And dance Dance with a stranger Til they're not a stranger anymore You just dance Dance with a stranger Til they're not a stranger Not a stranger anymore (Left, right, front, side Find somebody new and then Take them by the hand And say you understand) Look around the room There are so many people here like you People who came here to be together And dance it all away Who wanna be good and love one another And have big dreams, hard times and like to dance Look around the room Find somebody you've never seen before And lead them out to the dance floor And dance Dance with a stranger Til they're not a stranger anymore You just dance Dance with a stranger Til they're not a stranger Not a stranger anymore (Left, right, front, side Find somebody new and then Take them by the hand And say you understand) Oh dance Dance with a stranger Til they're not a stranger anymore You just dance Dance with a stranger Til they're not a stranger Not a stranger anymore (Left, right, front, side Find somebody new and then Take them by the hand And say you understand) (Left, right, front, side Find somebody new and then) Not a stranger (Take them by the hand And say you understand) (Left, right, front, side Find somebody new and then Take them by the hand And say you understand)
