Lucy Dacus Wants to ‘Protect’ Her Relationship With Julien Baker From Parasocial Speculation


Lucy Dacus opened up about her relationship with Julien Baker, explaining the sense of protection she feels in the face of parasocial fandom threats.

In a recent interview with the New Yorker, the musician expressed feeling a sense of protection around their romantic partnership, primarily in the face of parasocial fandom that holds the potential to drag a dark cloud over what she already considers to be an intensely emotional experience. Dacus and Baker saw their respective and intertwined fanbases grow in tandem during the explosive breakout of Boygenius, the supergroup they formed with Phoebe Bridgers. For Dacus, who will release her fourth studio album, Forever Is a Feeling, on March 28, this has meant learning to shut out the noise before it can drown out what really matters.
