Lucy Dacus celebrates the birthdays of her Father and Bruce Springsteen with a brilliant cover of The Boss' "Dancing in the Dark".

"Dancing in the Dark" is the fourth single from Dacus' holiday-themed singles series, 2019, after "Forever Half Mast", "My Mother & I" and her cover of Edith Piaf’s "La Vie En Rose".

Speaking about the new cover, Dacus explains, "Happy birthday to Bruce, but also happy birthday to my dad, the biggest Bruce fan I know and the reason I've listened to The Boss since birth. I resisted it when I was younger as a rebellion to my dad's taste, but I have come to love his music on my own time. His lyricism is embedded in my own songwriting inextricably at this point."

Dacus' 2019 project will also include singles for Halloween, Christmas, and New Year's.

"Dancing in the Dark" is out now. Lucy Dacus has just kicked off her North American tour. Find out more.
