Bad Self Portraits on CD

Lake Street Dive has been performing for nearly a decade after meeting as fellow students at the New England Conservatory in Boston. It took a casually made video featuring the band gathered around a single mic, performing a cover of Jackson 5's 'I Want You Back', shot on a Brighton, Massachusetts, street corner to grab the publics attention their You Tube views now hurtling past a million. The 2014 album BAD SELF PORTRAITS is a microcosm of Lake Street Dive's evolution of the band from a weird Alt-Country Jazz group to a Pop-Soul juggernaut, that includes '60s influences like Brill Building girl groups, British Invasion Rock, horn-driven Stax R&B, Motown Soul and even the Band-like Gospel Blues.
