Fun Machine: The Sequel CD (Autographed)

Purchase includes CD booklet signed by Lake Street Dive.

For Lake Street Dive, the prospect of covering some of their favorite songs in the studio isnt merely an exercise in breathless adoration. Its an opportunity for artful re-invention, a way to acknowledge their inspirations while also advancing their own musical foundationall in hopes of inspiring a new generation of fans along the way. On Fun Machine: The Sequel, they do just that spinning these carefully chosen and beloved songs to new places in their own, entirely original way.

Produced by Robin MacMillan and recorded at Figure 8 Recording in Brooklyn and Lucys Meat Market in Los Angeles (with contributions from touring guitarist/background vocalist, James Cornelison), Fun Machine: The Sequel is the bands second set of distinctive cover songs. While 2012s Fun Machine paid homage to their classic R&B, neo-soul, and jazz roots, Fun Machine: The Sequel expands the aperture a little wider, featuring selections ranging from R&B and pop favorites like Dionne Warwicks (Burt Bacharach/Hal David penned) classic Anyone Who Had A Heart, and The Pointer Sisters funky Automatic, to works by introspective singer-songwriters such as The Cranberries gorgeous Linger, Carole Kings classic So Far Away, Bonnie Raitts era-defining Nick Of Time, and even Shania Twains suddenly resurgent pop-country anthem, Youre Still The One.

Ten years ago, a deliciously syncopated cover of The Jackson Fives I Want You Back performed on a street corner in Boston, Massachusetts, helped propel Lake Street Dives remarkable journey. With tens of millions of streams, an acclaimed discography including seven celebrated studio LPs, two EPs, a slew of much-loved singles and an enduring worldwide fanbase to their credit, the genre-busting group has become a dynamic and exhilarating force in popular music. And on Fun Machine: The Sequel, its Lake Street Dives signature combination of immaculate musicianship, exceptional, inventive chops, and free-wheeling sense of fun that leads the way.
