Lucy Dacus and Chappell Roan: A Friendship That Heals

Lucy Dacus has recently opened up about her incredible friendship with Chappell Roan. A relationship founded on mutual appreciation and understanding, it has proven to be a source of strength during turbulent times in Dacus’s life.
In a captivating interview with People Magazine, Dacus shared how her and her bandmates connected with Roan after she bravely spoke out about challenging fan behavior. Dacus recalled, “When Chappell was feeling spread really thin, all of us in Boygenius were encouraging her and telling her that it’ll die down, and it is just a really spinny trip when everybody has something to say about you.”
This supportive dynamic didn’t go one way. When Lucy faced a tough week where negativity overshadowed her music career, it was Chappell who uplifted her. “I had kind of a bad week a couple of weeks back, where putting out music just feels worse, and it made me wonder if I should just skip to the part of my life where I live off the land and have a job that isn’t my name,” Dacus revealed. “And she was just like, ‘No, what you make is important and makes a lot of people feel less lonely.’”
The duo’s shared experiences often brought deep conversations about how public perception impacts personal life. “When people hate you, they don’t know you. On the flip side, when they love you, they don’t know you either,” Dacus explained. This awareness allows both artists to navigate their fame while cherishing genuine relationships beyond the spotlight.
As Dacus prepares for the release of her fourth album, ‘Forever Is A Feeling,’ we can certainly expect more profound insights into her journey. Collaborations with artists like Hozier and Blake Mills promise to enrich her lyrical narrative and showcase her incredible talent. Connections like these make even the toughest moments more bearable and remind us of the power of friendship.
