Singer-songwriter Lucy Dacus returns to Sydney with latest album Forever Is A Feeling 

One of the buzziest indie rock stars of the past decade, singer-songwriter Lucy Dacus has captured the hearts of audiences with both her yearning, intimate solo records and her smash collaborations with Phoebe Bridgers and Julien Baker in the supergroup boygenius. At last, she returns to Australia to make her long-awaited Sydney Opera House debut.

After breaking out of the Richmond, Virginia indie scene in the mid-2010s with her richly confessional debut No Burden (2016), Dacus cemented her status with 2018’s devastating Night Shift and her follow-up album, Historian, before returning with 2021’s acclaimed Home Video. In between, her collaboration with Bridgers and Baker led to boygenius’s hyped 2018 EP and 2023’s era-defining full-length, a record that vaulted her and her bandmates into the realm of rock ’n’ roll celebrity.

Fresh off her chart-topping latest album Forever Is A Feeling and a stunning set at this year’s Glastonbury, Dacus is headed back down under for one night only in the Concert Hall, performing everything from her intimate indie folk to her recent, romantically-infused chamber pop.
