“State-of-the-art State-of-the-art” podcast: Lucy Dacus may not send you back to you

On the fourth album Solo “Forever is a Feeling” (March 28) Lucy Dacus wonders about the fears and admiration that accompanies the fall for someone. The song “Best Guess” celebrates a jump of faith involved in the involvement of a partner with knowledge that you both change over time. In another song “Talk”, the couple realize that they have spread because they have nothing more to say.

In this episode, Dacus reads the contemporary essay Molly Pascal “How the” Dining Dead “, who said again” a couple who decides to restore the conversation in their marriage. And Dacus says Annie Martin, why he is not afraid to put in work for long -term love.

The fourth solo album of Lucy Dacus, “Forever is a Feeling”, is not 28 March.
