Lucius

About

Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig, the dual forces behind Lucius, aren't just singers; they're sonic architects. Their harmonies, honed since their Berklee College of Music days, are less a blend and more an intricate tapestry, woven from threads of classic pop, 60s girl-group sensibilities, and a touch of art-rock experimentalism. While early comparisons to the Andrews Sisters felt apt, pigeonholing them would be a disservice. Lucius has consistently evolved, shedding retro skin for a sound that's both timeless and distinctly their own. The breakthrough came with 2013's "Wildewoman," a collection of songs that showcased their vocal prowess and songwriting depth. Tracks like "Turned Out They Were Right" became anthems of self-discovery and resilience. Subsequent albums, including "Good Grief" and "Second Nature," saw them embrace synths and electronic textures, pushing the boundaries of their sound while retaining the core elements that define Lucius. Beyond their own discography, Wolfe and Laessig have become sought-after collaborators, lending their signature harmonies to artists like Brandi Carlile, The War on Drugs, and Harry Styles. Their vocals aren't mere backing; they elevate the songs, adding layers of depth and emotion. As Lucius continues to explore new sonic territories, one thing remains certain: their commitment to crafting intelligent, emotionally resonant music will continue to captivate audiences for years to come.
