Turns Out boygenius’ Lucy Dacus Is an OG Rich Mullins Fan

When Lucy Dacus thinks about the soundtrack to her childhood, Rich Mullins’ “Our God is an Awesome God” is at the top of the list.

“If you sing that song, or any song like it, people go like… we were hypnotized,” the boygenius member said in a new interview with Teen Vogue.

It’s not the first time Dacus has mentioned the Christian staple. Back in 2021, Dacus opened up about being surrounded by “post-Christian people” — a term she also uses to describe herself — and shared that while she and her friends have moved on from faith, the worship songs of their youth have stuck around.

“The lyrics are, like, embedded,” Dacus said. “It will never leave. I will know the words to those songs my entire life.”
