Coming soon
Lucia & The Best Boys shares news of second album ‘Picking Petals’
The announcement has landed alongside the LP’s lead single, ‘You Look Like Somebody In Love’.

Lucia & The Best Boys - the project of Glasgow favourite Lucia Fairfull - has announced that she’ll be releasing her sophomore record ‘Picking Petals’ on 31st July via Communion Records, and has also unveiled its flagship track ‘You Look Like Somebody In Love’.
The follow up to her 2023 debut ‘Burning Castles’, ‘Picking Petals’ promises to be a collection grounded in lived experience, informed by the rich, wild landscapes of Scotland, as well as Lucia’s own navigation of self-perception, perseverance, and formative friendship.
New single ‘You Look Like Somebody In Love’ is an instant-earworm offering featuring a jangly, Smiths-esque guitar line and operatic vocals, and will sit alongside two collab tracks on the album: recent Lauren Mayberry link-up ‘Lonely Girl’, and ‘Big Romance’, which stars The Last Dinner Party’s Abigail Morris.
