Lake Street Dive and SNACKTIME Are Playing Toronto’s HISTORY in March 2027
Lake Street Dive is bringing its What About Flamingos? 2027 Tour to Toronto on Wednesday, March 17, with Philadelphia band SNACKTIME opening at HISTORY. The concert is part of a North American run scheduled just weeks after Lake Street Dive’s next album arrives.
Toronto gets one of two announced Canadian stops. The other is at MTELUS in Montreal on March 16, giving fans in both cities a chance to catch the two-band lineup.

A Two-Band Show Built Around Live Instruments
Lake Street Dive moves between pop, soul, folk and jazz, with vocalist Rachael Price at the centre of its sound. For this tour, the band is pairing its new material with a group that also takes an open approach to genre.
SNACKTIME is a seven-member band with drums, bass, guitar, trumpet, trombone and saxophone. Nico Bryant leads the vocals, while the brass section pushes the music through funk, hip-hop, rock and R&B influences.
That makes the March show a fit for fans who prefer full-band arrangements and strong vocals over a straightforward pop set. Neither band has announced its Toronto setlist or individual performance lengths.
Lake Street Dive’s New Album Arrives in February
Lake Street Dive plans to release its next album, What About Flamingos?, on February 19, 2027, through its Dive Not Drive Records label. The band recorded the project with members playing together in the room, rather than building every part separately.
The title track is already available ahead of the album’s release. With the Toronto concert taking place less than a month later, the timing gives listeners a chance to hear the record before seeing the band onstage.
SNACKTIME Has a New Remix and an Album on the Way
SNACKTIME’s latest single has also received a remix from Druzin, the keyboardist for flipturn. Released October 21, 2026, the rework leans into a quieter, more reflective house sound than the band’s drum-heavy original.
The idea came after SNACKTIME met flipturn’s Dillon Basse at Newport Folk Festival. While travelling home, the group heard a separate remix Druzin had made for flipturn and approached him about revisiting its own track.
Justin Lucas produced and mixed the original single, and Chris Gehringer mastered it. It is the first release in the band’s partnership with Thirty Tigers, ahead of a debut album planned for 2027. The band has not shared a specific album release date.
For a preview before the Toronto show, listen to the Druzin remix on Apple Music.
The Philadelphia Band Has Had a Busy 2026
SNACKTIME has spent much of the year moving between festivals and support slots. Its recent schedule includes Lollapalooza, Boston Calling, Roots Picnic and Newport Folk Festival, plus shows with Mt. Joy at Madison Square Garden.
The band will also play a November 11 WFUV benefit in New York with Devon Gilfillian and Danielle Ponder. Additional November dates with Sir Woman take the group through Boston, Columbus, Ann Arbor and Chicago.
Those shows lead into the February and March run with Lake Street Dive, including back-to-back Canadian dates in Montreal and Toronto.
