Lake Street Dive will launch a 15-date North American run on February 26, one week after releasing What About Flamingos? on their own Dive Not Drive Records.
Lake Street Dive are taking their next album straight onto the road. The band announced the first leg of its 2027 North American tour, a 15-date run beginning February 26 at Vibrant Music Hall in Waukee, Iowa. What About Flamingos? arrives February 19, putting the opening show just one week after the release and making the tour an immediate introduction to the new album.
The route moves through Omaha and the St. Louis area before reaching Memphis, Birmingham and Nashville. Later stops include Washington, D.C., Philadelphia and Brooklyn, followed by Canadian shows at Montreal’s MTELUS on March 16 and Toronto’s HISTORY on March 17. Detroit and Louisville lead into the March 21 finale at Peoria’s Prairie Home Alliance Theater, giving the first leg a compact late-winter schedule.
SNACKTIME will support the run, with one exception. The March 6 concert at Greenville, South Carolina’s Peace Concert Hall is billed as “An Evening With Lake Street Dive.” That distinction gives fans a useful detail when comparing nearby dates: the Greenville engagement has a different announced format, while the rest of the itinerary pairs the headliners with the same opening act.
The new record also marks a change in how Lake Street Dive release their music. What About Flamingos? is the first album on the band’s own Dive Not Drive Records. The musicians recorded together live in the studio, responding to fans’ requests for a live album without simply issuing a concert recording. Sessions were split between Philip Weinrobe in West Hurley, New York, and Jonathan Wilson in Topanga Canyon, California.
The title track and its official video are already available through the band’s website, offering a preview ahead of February. “You’re Never Around” preceded it over the summer. The recording approach puts the group’s interplay at the center of the album’s story, creating a direct connection between the studio project and the tour that will follow its release.
Artist presales and VIP package sales begin October 28 at 10 a.m. local time; the general sale follows October 30 at the same local hour. Official venue and ticketing listings confirm those windows for stops including Louisville, Philadelphia and Montreal. Fans choosing a date should use the corresponding venue listing for its specific ticket options, with the band’s album landing page serving as the starting point for the new music.
