Lake Street Dive plays "Nick of Time" On a Boston Sidewalk

[@andyyarnell7579]

Just pure talent... so clean, no gimmicks, no effects or overdubs, just pure clean sound. Love it. Go see them live, they never disappoint.

[@spikeklein2196]

Well said, my friend.

**drives around this block for the next ten years hoping to see Lake Street Dive performing**

Come on! More info~ was it wicked close to the BC campus, actually on Lake St? Everything about this band is a wonderful rep for hip music, no doubt ;)

[@BarneyDavey]

Kudos and ditto!

[@davidkozlowski6239]

Precisely

[@ronlicht6368]

Whoever monitors this channel doesn't want the location released. I found it 10 years ago after the release of I Want You Back. I had two kids attending two different Boston colleges and became obsessed with finding the corner. I posted an answer to your question including the location and but it was deleted. (The post, not the corner.)

[@truthstillmatters59]

I'm an old guy who doesn't listen to much music post 1990. I tell my kids the music today just isn't any good and there aren't any real bands who use actual instruments to make real music. It is all computerized music. I have been proven wrong. I recently discovered Lake Street Dive and they have quickly become one of my favorite bands. They are awesome!

[@markmoore588]

Me too

[@matthirn7858]

Sometimes I think we fool ourselves about the music of our era. Most of the hits that we enjoyed were played by studio musicians. It saved on studio time cost, allowed virtuosos to add incredible tags and improvised solos, and gave us uniformly well played hits on the radio. Today, the producers work to get the image that the record label wants. They use post production to clean up vocals and add any kind of musical track they want. Even the best artists are often subjected to this treatment. The good news is that we have more talented musical artists than ever before and they can be heard in live recordings all over the internet, where their raw talent is on display. What a great era of music we live in today.

This band, that voice. You all are a balm for these troubled times, a tonic for what ails us. Thank you.

[@JeffDaytonMusic]

Amen!

[@BarneyDavey]

LSD oozes a natural, smooth cool with remarkably restrained elegance while delivering a reverent ode to a Bonnie Raitt classic. Congrats on ten years together, and here's to decades more of creating gems like this.

[@barn_ninny]

I mean, look, Bonnie is Bonnie and nobody else is Bonnie. But this is a damned respectable cover. Rachel has one of the sexiest voices I can think of.

[@dannyteague5741]

This band just keeps getting better. They have such talent and chemistry.

[@thomasfitzmaurice5704]

My daughter turned me on to the Dive; love the sound and the lead singer is super gifted

[@eccolibri60]

My daughter did the same thing for me several years ago!

[@jazznutz]

Consistently one of my favorite singers of all time.

[@AbeEmersonJr]

In all of my years, I don't think I've had sucha crush on a female voice as Rachel's! The control, tone, tambre is the most soothing and emotionally electric thing I've ever heard, a female Sam Cooke to me. And she's ridiculously gorgeous (stop, I have a Gatorade)! I've introduced countless people to LSD (wait...is THAT a thing?!? Lol) and I DREAM of running into y'all randomly and telling y'all how much I LOVE this band! Oh, and the bassist, you are SUCH a breath of sunrise beach air! You EQUALLY deserve your flowers for your role. I could listen to you just practice by yourself. Long story short, if you guys perform where I can attend I'll be the kinda tall, bald guy incessantly grinning the whole time. LOVE ALL of y'all!!!

I'm in COW-lumbus, Ohio as I KEEP checking my calendar waiting for August 17 to come tap me on the shoulder and say "Your Singing Friends are Finally Here".....I have my tickets to The Show At The Rose in Huber Heights which is just down the road in my State Of Ohio! Lake Street Dive became Family almost 5 years ago! Their music is a Family Photo Album for my ears to groove on! Keep Singing and Strutting Everyone as we definitely need one another even more so now days! Cheers All

[@glio1337]

Seeing that original "I Want You Back" video when y'all released it made me a fan for life. I love that it's back for round two.

[@ChrisDemersCSD]

How absolutely cool this is and totally keeping in character as to who you are as a band. Cannot wait for the next album of covers. And thank you for kicking off by honoring the brilliance that is Bonnie Raitt. #FavoriteBandEverThereWas

[@lynntunes]

Last night at Bonnie Raitt’s concert in Portland, Oregon Bonnie said Lake Street Dive recorded this song. Nice to to have the legend who wrote the song mention you. Good luck out there, may you have long and thriving careers.

[@BarneyDavey]

Wow! What a generous notice and comment from Bonnie.

Beautiful song. Good way to start the morning. Absolutely love this band. Thank you.

[@ExtraFancy96]

Incredible sound from a single mic!

[@antoinenhn3874]

Not a single mic.

[@JohnGrayOnline]

I've read that their outdoor sessions are recorded with a quite sophisticated sound rig and crew nowadays, it shows. This is yet another superb LSD performance. I miss the Duck, but thankfully the current lineup is still great. With vocals, bass and (ever so sensitively deployed) percussion like this they can perform anything superbly.

[@wiejetze8397]

​​@@JohnGrayOnline Comparing what is to see with what you hear shows it is not synchronous. That means the audio recording is made on it's own and not with just one mic I guess.

[@michaelshearer3559]

The guitar sounds so good in the mix, with that great bass and vocals. Love this.

[@noestaniwel4543]

Goosebumps all over when I hear her voice....greetings from Holland Europe

Brilliant. Getting a Subdudes vibe from this - great voicals with a stripped back, less-produced, and genuine sound.

[@VonBluesman]

Rachael your voice has such a warm comforting tone. That is one blessed man and someday maybe a child that gets to lay in your arms while you sing to them. You really do bless all of us that get to hear your sing. Keep on keeping on. 👍👏🎸🙏😎✌️

[@shanefiddle]

Wow, best take of this song I have ever heard. Ever. Wow. So good!!!

[@claudecat]

Love it! Y'know, I love anything they do, but it's always better live - a sign of true musical talent. They're actually BETTER when they don't have time to sweeten and perfect everything. Just listen to Rachel here, improvising at times and recovering from minor "mistakes". It's brilliant on the same level as any master musician that depends on ears rather than (or in addition to...) written music or other formal guidelines. Django comes to mind... And every time they set up and play the mix/sound is different, something to which they adjust extremely well. This here is really dry and spare, the opposite of the version they did in the bathroom (I think?) that was very echo-y. Doesn't phase 'em at all. These people are the best band out there right now, even without McDuck. See 'em now, and often, before you live to regret it!
