“You couldn’t ind three people who are having a more similar experience,” says Phoebe Bridgers. “It’s being in a room with truly your peers. It’s what men get to do every time they walk into a venue.”
Bridgers is down the line from somewhere near Joshua Tree, describing the experience of collaborating with fellow songwriters Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus on boygenius, a project that emerged out of a ierce friendship and produced a stunning six-song EP that marries their distinct voices and musical talents.
Perhaps it was inevitable that the three would cross paths; they are, ater all, among the most gited young songwriters working today. Still, each describes the fact of having found each other with a kind of wonder.
