Feb 22, 2016Lake Street Dive's previous release, Bad Self-Portraits was a perfect album, and this one, Side pony, is just as good. Every song is memorable (my favorite right now is Side Pony) and the pacing of the album as a whole is outstanding. Plus, if you can see them live, they are even better than their recordings. They should be the biggest thing in pop music today.

Mar 30, 2016Side Pony is a solid starting point for anyone who has yet to discover the band.

Feb 24, 2016At times, Side Pony can be a bit too breezy or precious for its own good (lullaby-ballad “So Long” strikes a lot of good poses but is astoundingly forgetful given what it’s surrounded by), but at the end of the day, it’s hard to argue with a group that merges so many instruments together to form a sound that feels like warm sunshine on a summer day.

Feb 19, 2016It may take a leap of faith, and it’s hard to imagine how convincingly Lake Street Dive can pull off this slick, immaculately produced studio album on stage, but once you let yourself go with the disc’s flow, it’s tough not be engaged by the sheer vivacity and likeability of a set that sounds like it was plucked out of a time capsule.
