For FLOOD‘s April 2025 digital cover story, I had the delight and honor of chatting with Lucy Dacus about her brilliant new album, Forever Is a Feeling (her first solo release since the massive success of her on-hiatus supergroup with Phoebe Bridgers and Julien Baker, Boygenius, and fourth album overall).
