Lake Street Dive Premieres ‘Being A Woman’

Just in time for International Women’s Day, Lake Street Dive has premiered their latest track “Being a Woman.”

Written by the band’s bassist Bridget Kearney, the track speaks to gender inequality and the societal discrimination women face on a daily basis. On their forthcoming record “Obviously,” set for release on March 12 via Nonesuch Records, Lake Street Dive has crafted songs that reflect this particularly turbulent chapter in our shared history.

“Happy Women’s History Month and this one goes out to all of the hard-working women of the world,” said Kearney. “We are thankful to the many voices that came before us shouting for gender equality, without whom we may never have had this microphone in which to say, ‘it’s not fixed yet!’ With this song, we humbly add our voices to that chorus.”

“Obviously” is produced by Grammy Award-winning producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Mike Elizondo, best known as a songwriting collaborator with Dr. Dre, Eminem, and 50 Cent. Utilizing Elizondo’s hip-hop record-making expertise, Lake Street Dive’s wide-ranging taste in pop, rock, R&B, and jazz have blended together to make a cohesive sound, combining retro influences with a contemporary attitude.

The band features Kearney, Rachael Price (lead vocals), Mike “McDuck” Olson (trumpet, guitar) and Mike Calabrese (drums) as well as their newest member Akie Bermiss (keyboards), who began touring with the group in 2017.

The band will appear on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” on March 11 as well as “CBS This Morning: Saturday Sessions” on March 13.
