Lucy Dacus shares new Home Video single VBS
Lucy Dacus has also premiered the video animated by Marin Leong.
“VBS means vacation bible school, and I went to tons of them,” Dacus says. “It’s where Christian parents send their kids over the winter, spring, or summer breaks from school to get closer to God, maybe learn some outdoor skills, and bring home useless crafts and totems like fruit of the spirit sand art and purity rings.”
“I wrote the song in the van on the way to Nashville to record Home Video after seeing one of those readerboards outside a church advertising a wholesome church camp for kids.”

Lucy Dacus has released her fan-favourite song Thumbs .
The songwriter wrote the song in 15 minutes during a trip to Nashville, with both the words and melody spilling out of her.
Becoming a key part of her live shows, she has always been reluctant to release the song, preferring to live with it for a while.
Now she s finally released Thumbs , and it s worth the wait - an intense piece of storytelling that skirts profound truths.
One of her strongest vocal performances to date, the spartan aesthetic that underpins Thumbs makes room for subtle synth lines and a mellotron.

Back in 2018, Lucy Dacus started playing a song in her live sets called “Thumbs.” It quickly became a fan favorite. Dacus had asked fans to not record the song during performances so it could be enjoyed once it was eventually released as a single, but she inadvertently caused a mythologization of the song. There’s even a fan-made Twitter account dedicated to “Thumbs,” tracking whether it was released or not. She first surprised 100 random fans with a hand-assembled VHS tape featuring “Thumbs” in late February. Now, the singer-songwriter has finally decided it’s time to share “Thumbs” with the world.
