Lake Street Dive's Mike Calabrese and Akie Bermiss are on the latest episode of the podcast The Show on the Road to chat with host Z. Lupetin of Dustbowl Revival, which you can hear below.

"There are very few things in life that you can depend on," says Lupetin, "and yet since 2004, when they were founded by luminous singer Rachael Price, upright bassist–singer-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 has consistently put out virtuosic, heartfelt, harmony-laden, decadently delicious, nerdy dance music that, honestly, only got more beautiful and kinetic when they added keyboardist Akie Bermiss in 2017."

Lupetin goes on to say: "After a year and a half of doomscrolling and fearing for the worst, what I like most about this new record, Obviously, is how sexy it is ... If you have an hour to spare, slip into something comfortable, light some incense, pour yourself a cold cocktail, and put on Lake Street Dive's Obviously, and let the magic happen."

You can do just that by listening to the album and picking up a copy here. You can get tickets to see the band live on tour here.

    The Way Out of Easy, the first album from guitarist Jeff Parker and his long-running ETA IVtet—saxophonist Josh Johnson, bassist Anna Butterss, drummer Jay Bellerose—since their 2022 debut Mondays at the Enfield Tennis Academy, which Pitchfork named one of the Best Albums of the 2020s So Far, is out now on International Anthem / Nonesuch Records. Like that album, The Way Out of Easy comprises recordings from LA venue ETA, where Parker and the ensemble held a weekly residency for seven years. During that time, the ETA IVtet evolved from a band that played mostly standards into a group known for its transcendent, long-form journeys into innovative, groove-oriented improvised music. All four tracks on The Way Out of Easy come from a single night in 2023, providing an unfiltered view of the ensemble, fully in their element.

    The Staves' new EP Happy New Year, out today, includes three acoustic versions of tracks from their new album, All Now—"I Don't Say It, But I Feel It," "After School," and "All Now"—and a cover of The Beatles' "She's Leaving Home." Also out now: an acoustic performance video for "After School," which the duo calls "a love song to our sister Emily inspired by the bands we were listening to in the '90s. Putting on the rose-tinted glasses and embracing nostalgia."
