Lucius joins host Raina Douris
Four studio albums into their almost 2-decade long career, Lucius have released their first self-titled record. On the World Cafe, Holly Laessig and Jess Wolfe explain why this is the album that “feels most like them”. They also talk about creating a world their listeners can escape into, and they get into the challenges and perks of bringing their babies on tour with them.
