Lucius

Lush, rhythmic indie pop defined by two voices singing in perfect, crystalline unison. It is the sound of a lifelong friendship set to a driving, percussive beat.

Intro

Lucius is a Los Angeles-based indie pop ensemble centered on the creative partnership of Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig. Formed in Brooklyn in 2007, the band's identity is anchored in the duo's unique vocal approach: singing in constant unison or tight harmony, often dressed in identical, highly stylized costumes.

Their sound has evolved from the stomp-and-holler folk-pop of their debut 'Wildewoman' (2013) to the more polished, synth-heavy explorations of 'Good Grief' (2016) and the disco-inflected 'Second Nature' (2022). Their technical proficiency and distinctive vocal blend have made them premier session and touring vocalists, contributing to major works by Roger Waters, Harry Styles, and The War on Drugs. Critically, they are lauded for bridging the gap between 60s pop classicism and contemporary indie experimentation. Their career arc reflects a move from the DIY Brooklyn scene to a central position in the modern Americana and indie-rock establishment, frequently collaborating with producer Brandi Carlile and appearing at major festivals like Newport Folk.
