Boygenius, Boygenius EP
Singer/songwriters Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers and Lucy Dacus recorded a 6-song EP over the course of 4 days. All three are exceptional lyricists whose songs plumb their emotional depths. Their voices sound great together; Baker’s and Dacus’s voices have a similar richness in their mid-range and Bridgers’s brighter, wilder nature compliments both of them perfectly, and Dacus soaring through her upper range adds another element entirely — any combination of these voices satisfies. In that sense, they’re a natural combination. Stylistically speaking though, the three are fairly distinct. The record works so well because Boygenius is both a band of three like-minded, emotionally driven songwriters and a collaboration between diverse musical talents. Highlights: “Stay Down,” “Souvenir,” “Bite The Hand”
