We were captivated by Lucius when they joined us for a Backyard Brunch Session last year, and since that time, their buzz has only grown. After being hailed as a “band to watch” by multiple outlets leading up to and after this year’s SXSW, the band landed a slot opening for Caveman on their headlining tour. This homecoming show at Webster Hall gave Lucius a chance to give it their all in front of the hometown fans. They showed off three new songs, in addition to some of the numbers we fell in love with during the session, like “Go Home”. One could be forgiven for mistaking Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig for sisters; the pair sing their harmonies so tightly you might think they’d been doing it since childhood. With a full band behind them for this set, their sound was able to fill the big room without losing the delicacy that made it special for us in that backyard in East Williamsburg. Look for the band to have an LP to share soon.

I recorded this set with Schoeps MK41 supercardiod microphones from our usual spot in the venue, plus the soundboard feed used for the Caveman recording. There are a few trouble spots during the first song as the levels were getting dialed in by the engineer; otherwise the sound quality is excellent. Enjoy!

    Hi there,
    This sounds great. Just as an FYI:
    “New Song 3” is called “How Loud Your Heart Gets”
    Also, “Two of Us On the Run” and “Wildewoman” are titled backwards.

    Thanks for taping and posting this!!
