After so much nostalgia, in these waning days of Pride Month, let’s flash to the present. I can’t imagine the queer joy of being a young person listening to boygenius right now. OK, queer joy might be the wrong words here. Sad sensitive queer girl joy is probably a better descriptor for the indie supergroup trio’s music. But, no matter your age, it feels good to immerse yourselves in these extremely gay, extremely relatable, extremely emo (do kids still say emo?) songs that cut to the marrow of what it feels like to be a queer 27-year-old anxious lonelyheart in this world. Also, hot damn, I just really love their suits.
p.s. Had to swap out the videos, but this one should play. And there are still suits.

Adore their music. I’m probably (definitely) too old to be a sad emo girl but damn it hits good.
Phoebe and Lucy have been heavy on my rotation for a long time.
Struggle with the name of their supergroup though. Subverted tropes blah blah de blah…but nope.
