Lake Street Dive, which is currently touring the UK and Ireland before heading to Australia, New Zealand, and Japan, has announced a two-month US tour beginning in February 2017. The US tour will include stops at the band members' alma mater, The New England Conservatory in Boston, for the prestigious school's 150th anniversary; Meyerhoff Symphony Hall with The Baltimore Symphony; The Fox Theatre in Oakland; and at the Ace Hotel in Los Angeles. See below for all of the currently scheduled US tour dates; for all the latest, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour. Fan pre-sale begins Wednesday, November 16; general on-sale begins on Friday, November 18.
Much has happened since Lake Street Dive released its latest album Side Pony earlier this year: the band was invited to play at the White House, was a music guest on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and on the Today show, sold out 42 shows in 2016 throughout the United States, and were featured on Chris Thile’s hosting debut of A Prairie Home Companion, among many other high points. The band recently finished the US leg of its tour, playing sold-out shows for enthusiastic audiences at the iconic Wang Theatre in Boston and Radio City Music Hall in New York, among others, before heading to Europe for the second time in 2016.
The quartet’s live shows have long been widely praised. Billboard recently said that Lake Street Dive successfully combined "Amy Winehouse, Rita Hayworth and R&B charisma," while Philadelphia’s WXPN/The Key said "Lake Street Dive played an incredible set … The crowd went wild." Mountain Xpress said, "They perform with absolute joy, their passion contagious," and the Charleston City Paper called a show "serious fun."
To pick up a copy of Side Pony, which Rolling Stone called "irresistible," head to iTunes or the Nonesuch Store. You can also hear the album on Spotify and Apple Music.
