Night Shift

about this song

The lead single off Lucy Dacus' sophomore album "Historian". The six-and-a-half minute track is about the aftermath of a break up, where she tries to move on and re-structure her life to avoid her ex-lover. "This is the only breakup song I’ve ever written. For a long time I didn’t believe expressing this sort of negativity was productive, but it’s less productive to resist the truth of a situation. It’s a hopeful song." – Lucy Dacus, NPR
