Lucy Dacus and Thandiwe Newton on Red Lipstick and Creative Solidarity

Home Video

DACUS: I have a friend that describes it as a completely unpretentious city. When people are nice to you, you don’t have to wonder if they’re being two-faced and when people are mean to you, you know that they’re just being fully honest and uncomplicated. DACUS: That’s one of the heaviest things, actually. I’ve experienced something similar. I wrote a song about a breakup and people tend to listen to it when they’re going through a breakup. So then it carries all of this sadness for people, which means that when they interact with me, it’s like a trigger for that sadness.

DACUS: For some reason, I don’t read about other musicians. I’m worried that I’ll start to walk on somebody else’s path, and also I really am so hurt by the threatening narrative of people who die too soon, who burn out. I really want to survive.DACUS: Oh, I’m glad you got to hear it. NEWTON: Boygenius presents to me as one of the most powerful examples of solidarity and sisterhood that I’ve ever seen.NEWTON: It was described to me as a supergroup by my daughter who is the reason I know about you. She wanted me to hear the EP and I loved it. It felt to me like such a gift to each other. It’s not just about you three as friends, it’s about the power of the collaboration between women.

DACUS: Often I’ll write a song about something that happened five years ago, not knowing that all that time my brain had been working on a synthesis.DACUS: Everyone else there had goals, and I think I was jealous of them because they wanted to make slasher films or be wedding videographers or something, whereas I was there because I didn’t want to choose, and film is everything. Film is performance, it’s writing, it’s editing, it’s directing. There’s color, there’s costuming, there’s music.

NEWTON: I’ve got so many things that we could touch on. Can I just talk about something dumb for a sec? What’s your favorite red lipstick?
