Boygenius on if they might make another record together

Boygenius have opened up about the potential of them making another record, saying that they like the future of the band remaining “a surprise”.The trio – formed of Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker – explored the future of the project in a recent interview with NME, in celebration of their debut album ‘The Record’ being named as album of the year.In the conversation, the band opened up about their time working on the breakthrough album, and the overwhelming response it received upon its release back in March.

When asked about whether they have any plans for new material, however, they explained how they aren’t quite sure what the future holds.“I like it being a surprise,” Baker began. “I like having this band be something that, because it’s more ephemeral or whatever, it’s not concretely tied to one of us or a person we have to live in every day.“It’s something we can revisit when we feel motivated to, or it’s a place we can retreat to,” she added. “I like saving it as something sacred instead of feeling like I have to constantly grind on it.”Since coming together to form the supergroup in 2018, the indie rock band have gone on to release their debut self-titled EP, as well as the critically acclaimed album – which was given a five-star review by NME upon its release.More recently, they also shared a second EP in October titled ‘The Rest’ – a four-song release that contained tracks NME described as “a magical coda to their mega year”.Before their formation, all three members had their respective solo careers.
