Boygenius concert chronology

The Julien Baker and Phoebe Bridgers with Lucy Dacus Tour was a co-headlining [1] concert tour with indie rock musicians Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus, collectively known as Boygenius. [2]

Contents

Background

In 2016, Phoebe Bridgers opened for Julien Baker on some of her tour. [3] Lucy Dacus also opened for Baker on a handful of tour dates that same year. [3] Being friends with both individuals, this ultimately led to Baker introducing Dacus to Bridgers, and meeting for the first time in 2018. [3] The trio had booked the tour before recording any music. [4] After it had been booked, they originally planned to record one 7", to promote the tour. [5] However, once together in the studio together they ended up recording six songs, which became their self-titled EP. For the tour, each artist performed a solo set of material before all three joined each other at the end to perform the full Boygenius EP. [2] [6]
