Lucy Dacus joins Yo La Tengo to cover The Ronettes and Carole King during third night of Hanukkah residency

After opening their third Hanukkah show with a Bobby "Blue" Bland cover, Yo La Tengo continued with covers of songs by Bob Dylan, The Velvet Underground, and The Monkees, and for the final three songs during the encore, Yo La Tengo welcomed Lucy Dacus to the stage, and they performed covers of The Ronettes' "Walking in the Rain", Dacus' own "First Time" song, and Carole King's "Home Again".

Night 3 of Yo La Tengo’s Hanukkah shows had:

- David Cross dressed as Ira’s rabbi answering questions about Judaism
- an incredible Run Run Run Velvet Underground cover
- and most importantly, Lucy Dacus as a surprise guest!
