BOYGENIUS

not only does this trio look brilliant on paper, but amounts to a supergroup capable of spellbinding, inspiring music.

Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus prove themselves to be remarkable accompanists as well as sublime songwriters on this vital ep. Across these six songs their combinations transcend what they are capable on their own, the project steeped in spirit, generosity and power. Somehow it blends anthemic belters, dreamy musicianship, and emo/alt folk and never curdles. In fact, it’s a seamless and brilliant record and might just be the most vital thing any of them have produced.

Essential if you like snail mail, big thief, okkervil river, death cab for cutie.
