An immensely creative quintet that’s as fun to watch as it is to listen to, Lucius crafts luscious pop songs full of Abba-esque melodies reworked for the 21st century, paired with irresistible percussion grooves. Led by cofounders and lead vocalists Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig, who sing layered vocals in unison, the Brooklyn-based band was described by NPR as fabulous and infectious. On May 7, Lucius performs at the Catalyst in support of its new album, Good Grief. Also on the bill: New York-based singer-songwriter Margaret Glaspy.
