Listen: Lucy Dacus – My Mother & I

Ahead of both Taurus Season and Mother’s Day in May, Lucy Dacus has shared a devastating new song – ‘My Mother & I.’ Listen here.

This is the first composition for her ongoing 2019 holiday song series, which will also include singles tied to US Independence Day, Springsteen’s Birthday, Halloween, Christmas and New Year’s.

In Lucy’s words: “Being adopted has encouraged me to consider what mothers pass on through blood and body, and what they impart in the way of socialization and context. We — daughters, and all children — easily inherit the shame and fear of our mothers, but also the pride, self-assurance, and lessons of love.”
