Lucy Dacus' dream covers

from Take 5 · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation

Lucy Dacus is one hell of a songwriter. Her second album Historian, brought a whole heap of new ears to her songs, it was considered by many as one of 2018's best. Life has been pretty busy for Lucy Dacus. As well as her own music, she collaborated with Julien Baker and Phoebe Bridgers on the boygenius project, and has been recording a new EP of cover songs based around significant holidays. That was the catalyst for her Take 5 theme; I wanted to know what her dream covers would be. From Yo La Tengo to Louis Armstrong to The Cure, Lucy’s choices told the story not only of her musical background, but the artists who had helped her understand the world. Yo La Tengo - ‘Tom Courtenay’Jesse Pearson - ‘One Last Kiss’Louis Armstrong - ‘When You’re Smiling (The Whole World Smiles With You)’The Cure - ‘Close To Me’Sixpence None The Richer - ‘Kiss Me'
