Backyard Report : Lucy Dacus

Richmond, Virginia is the place I call home and we have what seems to be an endless wealth of musical talent here. I was introduced to Lucy Dacus through a mutual friend from the local band Manatree who also happens to play in her band. Lucy has a debut record entitled No Burden coming out via EggHunt in late February. "I Don't Want To Be Funny Anymore" has always been the strongest song live so I couldn't imagine a better song to represent what is to come from her.

Dacus has the kind of timeless voice that is smokey and bittersweet. To be honest I am still not sure how a woman as young as she is, can sound so wise beyond her years. I recently wrote about the band Our Girl from Brighton and if I was making a mix, I would put these two bands right next to each other.
