RACHAEL PRICE “What I'm Doing Here”

Rachael Price, the powerhouse vocalist behind the band Lake Street Dive, isn't your average singer. With a voice that swings effortlessly between smoky jazz and soulful blues, she captivates audiences with her impressive range and undeniable stage presence. “When Rachael Price opens her mouth and lets loose with her cool cannon blast of a voice, you sort of forget to breathe,” wrote Rolling Stone.
