Prior to the live performance captured in the video at the Ed Sullivan Theater on January 1, 2015, Lucy Dacus was still emerging as a significant voice in the indie rock scene. By this time, she had released her debut album, "No Burden," in 2016, which garnered critical acclaim and laid the groundwork for her subsequent success. The recording showcases her involvement in boygenius, a supergroup alongside Phoebe Bridgers and Julien Baker, with whom she released their self-titled EP in 2018. Notably, their collaborative nature emphasizes solidarity among women in music, which is a recurrent theme in Dacus's work. The performance reflects her growth as an artist and her ability to blend her distinctive sound with her bandmates, ultimately contributing to her trajectory in the industry. This lively performance reinforces the strong bond and artistry shared within boygenius, preempting much of Dacus's later solo work and acclaim.
