Julien Baker is awesome, I love watching her talk. She is so articulate and cautious with her words it's fun to watch her mind work. And then she's like "we're just buds making music." Awesome.

I LOVED the Freudian slip moment when she said "an awarness of the kind of dynamic you're *destructing*" instead of *constructing*. It makes sense though, Cheryl was talking about their individuality vs the collaborative work and said they don't sound like their solo work selves in this record, and Julian started talking about the construction of that collaboration but for that to happen somehow they needed to lo 'destruct' their solo dynamic!

Yeah it was the first song I heard when it played on my spotify radio one time and now I'm a big fan of all of them. I'm especially attached to Phoebe though and I think part of that was hearing her voice first and it just blew me away.
They even say NO with beautiful harmony 14:49
THEY MADE CHERYL CRY
I love the way Julien talks, her language is so intentional and I could listen the her talk forever.
When all three of them harmonise, it is absolutely angelic. Goosebumps every time.
17:20 Phoebe that "Guys being dudes" reference didn't go ignored; I hear you, I see you

This is the happiest I've ever seen Julien
I can't normally watch live performances. But Julien is so cathartic it's beautiful. There's these moments after Me & My Dog when she just sort of looks at the piano, then up at Phoebe and Lucy, and it's like she's winded. This good kind of winded you see marathon runners get after a race. It's amazing stuff and I love that these moments are captured.

I woke up yesterday with Cowboy Take Me Away stuck in my head and I can only assume it's the universe foreshadowing me finding this
Julien is the most talented singer/songwriter of her generation, and so modest.
boygenius is wonderful. The world is better with them in it.
Lucy’s voice on Cowboy take me home HOLY MOLY. pure frisson
Julien Baker had a very intimate performance in Pittsburgh (under 50 seats) at our station. We are so lucky to experience her up close and personal like that!
i’m so impressed how lucy especially is able to stay on pitch. they all have such distinctive voices
I don't think I've ever heard a group with every member being so articulate and intelligent. Love listening to them just talk about their art!
Cheryl Waters is a national treasure, she seems like the sweetest person
Julien, Phoebe and Lucy remind me of a time when, as a creative person, I worked on a project with a team of other creative people and discovered how truly remarkable (and very uncommon) it is to complete / experience a solution that is better because each member came together and fully trusted one another. The experience that Phoebe speaks of when she walks outta the room is so commonly universal….and destructive and unnecessary.

They played it at Crystal Ballroom in Portland OR when they did this tour. It was beautiful with the whole band. I do not know what took them so long to upload this video.
KEXP has had countless giants of music perform in their studios. This is possibly the best of the hundreds I've watched. 3 young legends of the game already reaching the highest heights.
This is one of KEXP's best, right up there with london Grammar -- just unreal how fantastic the vocals are, the violinist is insane, sheryl is so good in her natural interview style--- what a gem to see this again!!!!!!!! just Killer!!!!!!!
There are over 300 comments and, maybe somebody has already addressed this, but has the violinist been credited? She’s simply a master.

Phoebe : No one can see us😎 KEXP : Uploads video 😂
They are all three beautiful artists individually. Together, it is pure magic! I'm so glad they chose to form this group, and hope it lasts

Discovered this amazing band at IKEA of all places.
i love lucy sm, wish she sang more in boygenius
Julien is such a precious bean, I didn't expect that.❤
This is magical. I love how they're timid to admit they have cried on stage with each other after 16 shows. Grown 36y man and I'm crying before 30 mins is over
This was just amazing, the chemistry between the girls is amazing
I have listened to these women either apart or together every single day for the last two years or so since I first discovered their music. This video will keep the streak going.
I'm coming back to this video more than I thought I would
This is the most enchanting thing I have ever watched, I'm instantly a fan!
Awesome. Never heard Cowboy Take Me Away before, but them covering The Dixie Chicks is more than appropriate. Such a good set overall.
The first 3 singles were a solid part of my soundtrack for a trip to San Francisco... Will always hold a special place for me..
Gorgeous voices, thank you!
Such a lovely performance !!
Mighty fine singin', playin', and sound recordin'. Yes indeed!
