Lake Street Dive
Good Together

 

 

 

AllMusic が 80点相当

 

とびぬけて何かあるわけではないのだが、

基本的なサウンドと、Voの声質がばっちりなので

今作も自分好みで素晴らしい。

 

 

 

 

Lake Street Dive have quietly built a loyal following with their rootsy, hooky-laden brand of vintage-inspired pop-soul. It's a vibe they once again champion with assured ease on 2024's Good Together. The group's eighth studio album and second with producer Mike Elizondo, Good Together finds the Boston-bred, Brooklyn-based outfit taking stock of their career and overall creative partnership as a band who have been together for almost 20 years. Notably, the album is their first without co-founding guitarist Mike "McDuck" Olson, who amicably left the group following 2021's Obviously, with guitarist/vocalist James Cornelison coming on board. Also returning are lead singer Rachael Price, bassist/vocalist Bridget Kearney, drummer/vocalist Mike Calabrese, and keyboardist/vocalist Akie Bermiss. The album marks another first for the band, who purportedly all contributed to the songwriting early on in the process. The result is a record that feels convivial and breezy, showcasing their warm group harmonies and a nice balance of stylistic influences.
