Fun Machine: The Sequel (LP)
- Artist:
- Lake Street Dive
Fantasy is set to partner with the powerhouse, multi-genre ensemble on the next phase of their remarkable journey beginning with Fun Machine: The Sequel, Lake Street Dive's EP of exquisitely chosen and performed cover songs, produced by Robin MacMillan.
While 2012's Fun Machine paid homage to their classic R&B, soul, and jazz roots with re-imagined songs by the Drifters, George Michael, the aforementioned Jackson 5, and a killer version of Hall & Oates' "Rich Girl," Fun Machine: The Sequel expands the aperture a little wider, featuring selections ranging from R&B and pop favorites like Dionne Warwick's "Anyone Who Had A Heart" and The Pointer Sisters' funky "Automatic" to works by introspective singer-songwriters such as The Cranberries' gorgeous "Linger," Carole King's classic "So Far Away," Bonnie Raitt's era-defining "Nick of Time," and even Shania Twain's suddenly resurgent pop-country anthem, "You're Still the One."
