Produced by no less than the great Dave Cobb and Brandi Carlile, Second Nature offers a new look into Lucius’ creative vision. Featuring appearances from Drew Erickson, Rob Moose, and Gabriel Cabezas, along with backing vocals from Carlile and Sheryl Crow, the album proves worth the wait.

Lucius’ Jess Wolfe speaks on the inspiration behind Second Nature:

“It is a record that begs you not to sit in the difficult moments, but to dance through them. It touches upon all these stages of grief—and some of that is breakthrough, by the way. Being able to have the full spectrum of the experience that we have had, or that I’ve had in my divorce, or that we had in lockdown, having our careers come to a halt, so to speak. I think you can really hear and feel the spectrum of emotion and hopefully find the joy in the darkness. It does exist. That’s why we made Second Nature and why we wanted it to sound the way it did: our focus was on dancing our way through the darkness.”
