Since forming in 2004, Lake Street Dive have matched their sophisticated musicianship with a fearless refusal to limit their sound. As shown on their most recent album, 2021's critically acclaimed Obviously, the Boston-bred band also possess a keen talent for combining socio-political commentary with immediately catchy pop gems. Over the years, they've captivated massive audiences at such esteemed festivals as Newport Folk Festival, Telluride Bluegrass Festival, and Toronto Jazz Festival, in addition to headlining tours all across the globe and sharing stages with acts like Brandi Carlile and Sheryl Crow. And through their fierce commitment to constantly elevating their artistry, Lake Street Dive have ultimately emerged as one of the most compelling voices in alternative music today, both reliably sublime and thrillingly unpredictable. With their current lineup comprised of founding members Rachael Price (vocals), Bridget Kearney (bass), and Michael Calabrese (drums)—as well as keyboardist/vocalist Akie Bermiss and touring guitarist James Cornelison—Lake Street Dive continue to create joyously soulful rock & roll with equal parts ingenuity, intelligence, and irresistible abandon. In recent years, Lake Street Dive have brought even more boldness to their kaleidoscopic sound while deliberately expanding their songcraft. To that end, Obviously finds the band examining such complex matters as gender inequality (on “Being a Woman”) and the monumental challenges faced by younger generations (on “Making Do”), shaping each track with a profound intentionality and ineffable mastery of melody and groove—a process Price refers to as “putting these messages into three and a half minute snippets, dropping whatever truth we can and hoping it's the type of thing that people want to ruminate on.” Made with producer Mike Elizondo (Fiona Apple, Mary J. Blige), the result is an endlessly illuminating body of work that's earned praise from the likes of Rolling Stone (who noted that “at a moment when pop strives for lo-fi, solitary-world intimacy, the jazz-pop whatever band refuses to think small”). This episode features recordings from Lake Street Dive's 2022 performance at Big Top Chautauqua.       First broadcast in 1994, Tent Show Radio is a weekly one-hour radio program showcasing the best live recordings from acclaimed music acts and entertainers who grace the Big Top Chautauqua stage each summer in beautiful Bayfield, WI.

[REBROADCAST FROM March 15, 2021] On Lake Street Dive's seventh album, Obviously, the Brooklyn-based band worked with Grammy-winning producer Mike Elizondo, whose breadth of expertise includes bluegrass, rock, and hip-hop. Lead singer Rachael Price and keyboardist Akie Bermiss join us for a “Listening Party.”   This segment was picked by our Producer Simon Close.

Akie Bermiss is a Brooklyn-born singer, songwriter and member of the folk/country/pop act Lake Street Dive. A self-professed and proud nerd, Akie discusses how his decision to pursue music came after he thought he'd already mapped out a career path for himself. He speaks about self-confidence and coming from a family steeped in "Blackademia". There's also discussion about code-switching and being a social chameleon, a few fish-out-of-water stories tied to his experience at Bard College, and you'll find out why he enjoys "JOMO" as opposed to "FOMO".

This week, we bring you a conversation with members of the internationally loved soul-pop pioneers Lake Street Dive. Starting out as jazz nerds storming local folk festivals and tiny rock clubs around Boston, they've since become a well-oiled touring phenomenon, headlining Red Rocks, touring Europe, playing late night on Colbert and Kimmel, all while never settling into an easily nameable genre. In 2021, after three years since their last, they celebrated the release of their much-awaited seventh studio album 'Obviously.' Most notable bands are like sunsets: they flash their colors, they create a few memories and fade away. And most groups that attempt somehow to connect virtuoso players in the jazz, roots and rock ‘n' roll scenes never actually live in the same town and each have a Beatles-esque knack for singing sublime harmony and writing effortlessly killer hooks (see fan favorites like “Go Down Smooth,” “Good Kisser” or their new Tik-Tok earworm “Hypotheticals”) and also have their own solo groups? Maybe they last a few fiery tours and finally disband. And yet Lake Street Dive have become a steady standard-bearer in the nascent Americana world – and only seem to be getting tighter and more creative 17 years in. Founded in 2004 by luminous singer Rachael Price, upright bassist-songwriter Bridget Kearney, high-energy drummer Mike Calabrese, and the recently departed guitarist-trumpeter Mike “McDuck” Olsen at The New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, the group caught new wind and inspiration after adding kinetic keyboardist/singer-songwriter Akie Bermiss in 2017. After months of planning, we finally caught up with Calabrese and Bermiss on the Zoomways to discuss how they are forging a fresh path forward after a tough year and a half away. Make sure you stick around to end of the episode to hear how they meticulously created their knockout a-cappella pop gem “Sarah” which closes out their new LP.

Kurt Elling began singing as a kid in his father's midwestern church choir. He had ambitions of studying the philosophy of religion when he went to University of Chicago Divinity School. His soul, however, led him to the jazz clubs and just like that "Saturday night won out over Sunday morning." He signed a record deal before getting his last school credit.  Singer Songwriter Akie Bermiss and Mimi Hilaire discuss his story.

First half, Mar sits down with her friend Ladell who she saw Akie Bermiss with, at Wild Birds. Ladell felt Akie hit his soul and appreciates sci-fi themed tunes. Marleah recalls being raised on Jazzercise and All My Children, and loves a cover that’s better than the original. Second half, for another How Was It For You? segment, Marleah is with David Pattillo of Strange Majik, who she saw at Culture Lab on September 19. We recap the set, and also hear about background on the band, how ideas float down from the ether, that time David played for Kimye, and lo-fi highs.

    Lake Street Dive bookend the show today and prove to be a big hit here at Record Box HQ. Tobin floated the band and their kick-off-the-show tune Good Kisser is a great introduction to the Boston five piece. More on Lake Street Dive later. Personal friend and country songstress Andrea Glass features at long last. Well overdue is a play from her. We have a track from her debut LP, North Wind. More used to being played alongside other Country/Americana greats on shows like the legendary Bob Harris' we hope she feels equally at home here. Bobby Womack ends his track so abruptly it causes some hilarity in the studio. However, we delve into his colourful private life and the legacy he, and his brother Cecil left. Cecil forming Womack and Womack with Sam Cooke's daughter, Bobby's step-daughter with whom he'd had an affair. All very risqué and exciting. We've also got New Music in the form of the decisive Husbands track Mexico. You can get early access to New Music from Record Box HQ here. Wax time and a pre-release Richard spins up more legendary tracks from deep in his personal crates with the sublime Urban Species feat. MC Solaar track Listen. French rap never sounded so good. Couple that with a pre-release from Goner Records, Aquarian Blood send us a teaser from their forthcoming LP. Couple that with a Record Box Classic and you're in for a musical ride without comparison. Sit down, buckle up, get them head phones on and let's give the proverbial musical bird to the outside world and enjoy each other's company for about an hour. Just a little less actually, but it's time well spent. Good Kisser Lake Street Dive North Wind Andrea Glass Fly Me To The Moon (In Other Words) Bobby Womack Mexico Husbands Listen Urban Species feat MC Solaar A Song For You Donny Hathaway There's A World Aquarian Blood Rich Girl Lake Street Dive Lake Street Dive - tell us more Named after a street in Minneapolis that contains many dive bars (disreputable drinking establishment) Lake Street Dive formed in 2004. You're hearing lead singer Rachael Price here telling us all about how good she is at kissing. Backing her mighty claim is Mike Olson, Bridget Kearney, Mike Calabrese and Akie Bermiss. Respectively they play trumpet and guitar, upright bass, drums and finally keys. Keyboardist Akie Bermiss joined the band on tour in 2017 and plays on this LP. Lake Street Dive was brought into existence by a shared love to create free country music. Yes, really that. Just country music played for free. However, as Mike "McDuck" Olson states, The concept was abandoned for something that actually sounded good. Mike Olson Most members were already playing instruments at a young age and some even had classical training. However, their influences came mainly from the music they heard at home. Mainly jazz, soul and '60s rock. Lake Street Dive also all individually cite the entire Beatles discography as hugely influential. In fact Kearney wrote Hello? Goodbye! and Don't Make Me Hold Your Hand as a direct result of her love of The Beatles. Further influences on Lake Street Dive In addition to The Beatles, LSD cite Hall and Oates (heard here on the track Rich Girl), The Jackson 5, The Mamas and the Papas, Fleetwood Mac, ABBA and The Drifters. They also annually release a Halloween cover/video. You can go check out their Fun Machine EP which contains some of these covers. With this in mind, it's quite obvious Lake Street Dive don't take themselves too seriously at all. They're a fun band knocking out slick grooves and having a whole lot of fun along the way. In fact, they claim to draw on the energy of their audience and are able to pump that energy back at them and mould the atmosphere in the room We want it to sound like the Beatles and Motown had a party together Mike Calabrese Andrea Glass roll call Richard mentioned on today's show that Andrea Glass had an incredible roll call of musicians on this recording. Well, here's some further information to fill in the gaps. The LP from which Northwind comes is Stood Under Stars, recorded, mixed and engineered at 16 Ton Studios in Nashville, Tennessee in 2007. Mastered at Yes Master, again in Nashville. Featured musicians are as follows: Acoustic Guitar - Andrea Glass, Shawn Byrne Bass - Danny White Drum - Paul Griffith Electric Guitar - Shawn Byrne Hammond Organ - Mike Webb Piano - John Hobbs, Steve Knight Steel Guitar (lap & pedal), Resonator Guitar, Banjo - Al Perkins Vocals - Andrea Glass, Kevin Montgomery, Ashley Monroe, Andrea Zonn

BANG! @southernvangard #radio Ep 142! If you can’t feel it already, that holiday energy is in the air folks, good or bad - which means some irregular things can occur like Meeks not being able to make it to the show this week.

BANG! @southernvangard #radio Ep 112! While Meeks and Doe are on Spring Break this week - they still somehow manage to figure out how to bring that raw. This week they accomplish that by bringing you a guest mix from the Brown Bag All Stars' own DeeJay Element! We interviewed Element a number of months ago, so it made perfect sense to have him get behind the wheels of steel - and boy did he deliver with a Brown Bag All Stars Takeover mix! Interview session - oh yeah, we got that too - how about Miami's own DYNAS?! That drops on Thursday, so check out this weeks mix, go back and listen to the DeeJay Element interview if you missed it and clear out room on your device for the Dynas interview that drops Thursday!

BANG! @southernvangard #radio Ep 070! Folks - you’re in for some REAL TREATS this week - we were lucky enough to nab @J57 this week while he was getting some work done in ATL, and boy was it a good time. While the Ninja Cop himself was gracious enough already to come in for this weeks interview session, he also brought THREE, count ‘em THREE EXCLUSIVES that won’t be heard for SEVERAL months anywhere else, not to mention he brought a brand new batch of beats that won’t see the light of day for a few months either! What more else is there to say, this episode and the interview this week are on 1000 - as always there are tons of the latest and greatest hip-hop joints, you can check the J57 interview snippets at the end of this weeks mix, the full drops on Thursday!

Singer/Composer/Pianist akie bermiss is the real deal! The one to watch! Possessor of a flexible gift that can veer from jazz to funk to hip-hop without losing his proverbial breath. The evidence is in his transcendent live performances and his EP akie. But perhaps the real proof is his opus- in-progress "Alien Love Songs", a 20 song suite. akie's performing many of the songs live and you'll even find some on his Soundcloud page. Visit him online to stay up-to-date: http:// akiemusic.com/ or hear a wealth of akie's music on Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/akie- bermiss Talk Music Talk Playlist/031: The akie bermiss Edition This week's Spotify playlist is short and sweet. Short in length and long in classic soul inspired by akie bermiss. Digging deep into album cuts and the so-called flops, I've uncovered hidden treasures from artists you love with just a hint of songs that are familiar. All tied up with a pair from akie's eponymous EP. Settle in on a rainy day with tracks from Stevie Wonder, Curtis Mayfield, Lauryn Hill and more.
