LUCIA & THE BEST BOYS CARE

‘Care’ is the latest track from Glasgow-based outfit Lucia & The Best Boys. It was originally written for a friend in the midst of a toxic relationship, but Lucia realised the song ended up being for herself, too. “I feel like there was a lot of naivety when I was younger and I didn’t realise how toxic one of my relationships actually was until I started reflecting on it,” she says. “I started thinking about this particular time a lot whilst writing care and really started to embody these emotions all over again and although that was quite a strange thing to experience.” It’s an emotive track that subtly shows off her punky roots and develops the dark synth-laden sounds she has been crafting in previous releases. ‘Care’ is taken from Lucia & The Best Boys’ stunning debut album, Burning Castles, which is out now via Communion Music. -Dan Peeke
