CW: This song is inspired by the traditional old-time murder ballad traditions of North American folk music. More information can be found at the bottom of this video description.
LJ Parks performs her original song "Darlin' I Can't Wait" with @WhatLucyDoes @LJandLucyMusic to a large crowd at the National Celtic Festival 2024 (Sunday June 9th). Trust LJ to bring a cheeky country song to a Celtic festival...
This song is new and unreleased as of the time of this video's posting! If you, too, can't wait for it to be professionally recorded and polished up - let us know in the comments and we'll make it a priority, darlin'!
Special thanks to the festival for having us, and LJ's family for providing us with instruments, accommodation, food and lots of love! And of course a huge shout out to Lucy and her partner Christian for providing good vibes, music and this video footage xx
