I wish I could go back and feel the rush of experiencing this band for the first time again

[@tonydtonyd9]

Over a month and I still can't get enough of this band. The vibe, sincerity and unpretentious presentation pretty much encompasses everything I love about music.

[@LexBravary]

I hope this band keeps doing exactly *this*, and they never get exploited or convinced to be anyone but who they are. If this band existed in the 60s 70s they'd be famous and on the radio. This is talent that doesn't get recognized today.

[@sheatiller2465]

Yeah, they would've been famous then, and been one of those bands that faded into obscurity later.

[@ChrisHairMusic]

Heard this song on 91.7 in DFW. Love it.

[@spacehopper7]

What a talented group of musicians. Reminds me a lot of Van Morrison when he still wrote great songs ... before he vanished up his own ... well ... you know.

[@Joshuaroot]

I wish I could "like" this more than once.

[@Truskater28]

Meeting the band was so surreal.canada misses you. All love.

[@rainabecker8965]

The lead singer has an amazing voice. This band sounds like something from the 60s, i really like the Bad Self Portraits album.

[@Idontknowhattoputher]

Have you ever had a song save your life? Cause this is that song for me.

[@PyroK8]

+Cameron Kiys I was 25 and drifting when I heard her sing, "After 25 years I should be good at something," and I realized I needed to do something. So I have :)

[@odesseus]

I can't sop liking everything they do!

[@Smalltownthrowback]

So glad my bro just introduced me to this group. Blown away. Love the arts, enjoy the world.

[@wearebehindthetimes]

We love you guys.

[@stratslinger54]

I got a fever, baby, and the only prescription is "Lake Street Dive!"

[@jamesfrombumpus]

This song has not left my head since I heard it. Well done.

[@billyrivers3828]

Fantastic!!!

[@JonnieCometLtd]

This song and band are just fantastic. I've heard this a hundred times on indie radio (WXPN Philadelphia) but this LIVE performance is just marvellous. Stay tuned to these people for great stuff.

[@donelliot7650]

Live is best with these guys. Check out their street corner / front porch / playground quick videos they put together. Favorite is Elijah on their front porch in Brooklyn. (the drummer plays his foot) Real musicians. They don't need production values or extra BS. With just the simplest of instruments and their awesome vocals they make great music.

[@Truballa1010]

I have fallen in love with Rachael's voice.

[@superdemonboy]

I used to work with her. She's as real as they come, brother!

[@fyfferguy]

According to LSD themselves at their Boston show on 2/17, this is the working title of their next album, which is due out this summer. I am stoked. :)

[@tamerarogers6170]

All of their songs get stuck in my head. I love listening to them and I love singing them.

[@gfrizzleshizzlemanizzle]

Great show at Womad Aotearoa a few days ago! Thanks! Come again soon.

[@danstone873]

I’m late to the party, but this song is so good ❤

[@AdamJefferis]

OBSESSED with this song, this band. Such retro soulful smooth sound. Upright base player is killiin' it, EVERYONE is killin it!!

[@james-ew6wj]

Thank you 90.7 WFUV in NYC. This and other awesome tunes among their vast playlist.

[@eihluj09]

still feel nostalgic when I listen to this song. I heard this song 3years ago during a very sad moment. Great song though. Love you guys!

[@lagaman11]

[@MistaDollaD]

SO frickn amazing. True Talent. True Passion. No grab for money here people.

[@lebtu]

Dang! They are not coming to my area for the rest of the year! They are touring Europe right now. And when they come back to the states they will mainly be up and down the East Coast. But I have got to see them! I was instantly hooked the first time I heard them. They are amazing! How refreshing it is to hear real talented musicians using old school instruments but putting out a fresh modern sound! I have never heard anything like them before. And man! Her voice! Amazing!! Wow! This is my new happy song! :-) 

[@1airportsignguy]

Heard this today on KPRi San Diego. Nice! There was a discussion about their musical history. It made me like them more.

[@bastiannu]

Ya know there's literally millions of videos on youtube, but I keep coming back to this.

[@walterzimmerman5028]

Thank you NPR

[@Pineapple01610]

[@maggieboyle539]

[@romulusremus7537]

She's somewhere between Etta James and Bonnie Raitt at their best. Amazing. And great songwriting. Fantastic.

[@chasbodaniels1744]

Insightful pairing right there. Nice!

[@adriaanYT]

I like this !!

[@Zabigdog]

Love these guys x0x0x0

[@LiveandBreathing]

Lake Street's new album "Bad Self Portraits" is out today!

[@CarotideEtude]

and it's amazing!

[@Skayayo]

I love the shirt of the drummer "Hecho en México"

[@LiveandBreathing]

Also, if you want to listen to it on an iPhone while you are on the go, google "Keep KZbin Audio Playing on a Multitasking iPhone," if you follow the directions you can have the audio playing from a KZbin video without the video playing. Normally if you hit the home key or lock the phone the audio will stop, this is a way to bypass that.

[@danteandme2]

So glad she went on NPR and I found her. I love this so much

[@ktaboutphilly]

[@tommyhaynes521]

A really full sound for a four piece ( drummer with no tom toms ) band . I guess the fact that they all are singing gives them that thick sound. Fantastic. Great writing and arrangements
