It’s very easy to see indie folk rock as an emotional wasteland, full of white boys feeling sad about an independent woman, or full of white women sad about anything, because it kind of is. Thank god, then, for Lucy Dacus, whose debut album No Burden is an amazing breath of fresh air in an otherwise overwrought genre. She’ll remind you of Waxahatchee, Sharon Van Etten, and even Hop Along every once in a while. She writes wildly direct lyrics that deal with anxiety, identity, and occasionally love, but this record is most definitely about finding out who you are and taking control of your own life.
