Bluesfest Day Seven and Eight brought us an exciting blend of music across genres. We experienced electric performanes by Green Day, Papa Roach, The Linda Lindas, Los Bithcos, Lucius, and more!

Lucius delivered an intimate and engaging performance at the LeBreton Stage as part of their Gold Rush Tour. The Grammy-nominated band played mostly songs from their newly released self-titled album, Lucius, opening with “Final Days” and highlighting tracks like “Gold Rush,” “Do It All for You,” and “Old Tape.” Classics like “Tempest” and “Nothing Ordinary” were a treat for longtime fans. Their rich vocals and layered instrumentation paired with a warm atmosphere kept the audience fully engaged, with few phones in sight, sparking a genuine bond between the band and their fans.
