Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus each arrived at this collaboration as solo artists who had already built devoted followings through unflinching, confessional songwrit ing. What made the 2018 EP remarkable was how completely their voices and sensibilities merged, turning six songs into something that felt less like a side project and more like an inevitable convergence of three distinct but deeply complementary creative voices. 2022 release. Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus formed Boygenius after booking a tour together, but the trio had subconsciously been in the works for longer than that. Through a series of tours and performances together, and chance encounters that led to friendships - including Bridgers' and Dacus' first in-person meeting backstage at a Philadelphia festival, greenroom hangouts that felt instantly comfortable and compatible, a couple of long email chains and even a secret handshake between Baker and Dacus - the lyrically and musically arresting singer-songwriters and kindred spirits got to know each other on their own terms. "A long time ago, before I even met Phoebe, Julien mentioned that she had a pipe dream of starting a band with both of us," says Dacus. "Then we booked this tour and decided the time was right."
