Fresh from breaking the internet with some sweetly candid snaps of girlfriend Julien Baker on her birthday last week, Lucy Dacus has announced the digital release of Forever is a Feeling: The Archives this coming Friday (October 10).
The expanded edition of the singer/songwriter's fourth and most romantic album features both tracks from her recent 7" single ("Bus Back to Richmond" and "More Than Friends") plus six previously unreleased songs, including alternate, demo, and live versions, and a cover of Jim Croce's "Time in a Bottle".
While the digital version is packaged alongside the original album, Dacus will release Forever is a Feeling: The Archives as a standalone vinyl on December 8, with two additional songs: a demo of new track "The Most Hated Man in Tennessee" and a version of "Talk" recorded live at Red Rocks this past May. The vinyl also comes with a printed inner sleeve with lyrics and sticker sheet.

Forever is a Feeling: The Archives is out digitally October 10, with a vinyl release on December 8. Pre-order here. Tracklist for the vinyl edition below:
1. Best Guess (wedding version)
2. Bullseye (live at Radio City Music Hall, feat. Hozier)
3. Losing
4. Ankles (demo)
5. Talk (live at Red Rocks)
6. Time in a Bottle

Dacus plays the GRAMMY Museum in Los Angeles tonight, October 8, and has a bunch of other dates before the end of the year, including four nights supporting Billie Eilish in November. In February, she'll head out to Australia and New Zealand for an eight-date jaunt. Earlier this year, Dacus was forced to cancel her two Vancouver shows due to illness. Tickets are now on sale for a replacement show on May 12.
