Lake Street Dive is on NPR's World Cafe, discussing and performing two songs from the new album Free Yourself Up—"Good Kisser" and "Musta Been Something"—plus "Saving All My Sinning," from 2016's Side Pony. Host Talia Schlanger says: "If you've heard any of the original music they make, you know they take all the most fun bits of pop, soul, disco, jazz, rock and roll and stitch them together into something all their own." Hear the session here.

Lake Street Dive, currently touring the United States with music from the brand-new album Free Yourself Up, is on NPR's World Cafe. The band chats with host Talia Schlanger and performs two songs from the album—"Good Kisser" and "Musta Been Something"—as well as "Saving All My Sinning," a song from their previous Nonesuch release, Side Pony.

"In this session, we have some serious musicians who trained at a conservatory and make carefully arranged music with tricky harmonies. Sound like a recipe for fun? It is," says Schlanger. "This is Lake Street Dive we're talking about, and if you've heard any of the original music they make, you know they take all the most fun bits of pop, soul, disco, jazz, rock and roll and stitch them together into something all their own."
