This 2017 project blends classic Aretha Franklin vocals from the 1960’s and 70’s with newly-arranged versions of her music by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Swing to a collection of great songwriting as lush, new arrangements are added from the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London.

Let go to the groovy sound of Naturally 7 as they amaze on their stellar cover of "Everything She Wants". The a capella group use the ability of their collective voices to reimagine Wham!'s classic with power and soul.

Classic soul, R&B, jazz, and British invasion form the backdrop for the quirky and irreverent brand of pop that Lake Street Dive is known for. Combine this with the unstoppable joy of their live shows and near viral collection of YouTube videos, and you get the sum of the Lake Street Dive equation: pure pop music fun. Knock- your-socks-off vocals and virtuosic instrumentation top it all off. This Brooklyn based quartet is garnering a growing fan base in and beyond their native East Coast. Incorporating the unlikely elements of upright bass and jazz-inflected trumpet along with the more traditional rock staples of drums and electric guitar, Lake Street Dive are equally at home in a jazz club, a dive bar or a festival stage.
Fun Machine cements Lake Street Dive's reputation as a "monumental" band. Their blend of classic soul, R&B, jazz, and British invasion along with staggering vocals and virtuosic instrumentation is irresistible. This E.P. features 1 original and 5 covers by Hall & Oates, Paul McCartney, George Michael, Jackson 5 and The Drifters- all songs that fans have requested to be recorded, featuring the band's original instrumentation - with trumpet and not guitar.
