Boygenius Interview with Julie Slater || The SoCal Sound Interviews

[@miasemidey]

“5,000 little gay kids” was everything lol

[@usernamesnamesnames]

I laughed so much

[@savannah2025]

Them trying to keep it together when Julie says “threesome” is so funny

[@mjamois9355]

These were the faces of people who have done stuff

[@lightning2367]

"who is the hardest on themselves and why is it julien" I actually bust out laughing with them 😭

[@tulips4minji]

that’s what we are

[@paigee57]

they're right they do have choreography, during salt in the wound phoebe and lucy spin and run around on the floor then tackle julien while she's shredding away on the guitar

[@twobluestripes]

Yeah I totally get what Julien was saying, the show is more structured so she feels more secure and is able to relax and enjoy it more because she’s confident in what she needs to be doing when, not having to wing anything or make constant decisions on stage.

[@imaginaryvintage2695]

Yeah like when they plan your entire performance because you're not really a creative.

[@bogboybogboybogboyb]

​@@imaginaryvintage2695if you think planning= uncreativity then you obviously don't create anything lol

don't forget they all kiss afterwards

[@ohhlillyrose]

Julien always speaks so eloquently, it kills me.

[@twobluestripes]

And like, comes up with the most brilliant analogies spur of the moment? Like the sediment. She said it and it was like a little light clicked on.

[@MarxAviano]

Are you joking? She's by far the most scattered of the three.

[@BtotheDon12]

@@MarxAviano Not sure they're mutually exclusive. You can usually see how much thought and consideration she puts into everything she says, which can come off scattered but a lot of people find endearing, I do. I don't think I've ever seen her half-ass an answer. This definitely isn't the best example. But her solo interviews are some of my favorite of any artist.

[@boomeradley8748]

@@MarxAviano hating on julien isn't cute.

[@FadowaAlaly]

​@@MarxAviano You want to be very different. Anyway, she's the most eloquent and charismatic of the three 😊😊.

[@alexxfrederick]

Julien makes me feel so seen and I loved this interview so much. Her soul is so so beautiful and her talents are remarkable. I feel honored (in a way) to see an interview where her personality shines through. Her laugh is so contagious and her smile is so warm. I can't wait to watch her grow as a musician and as a person, I know she's gonna do great things (more than she's already done).

[@NutellaTheHun47]

Julien is my baby boy.

[@emotionallymotionsick]

lucy and juliens impression of phoebe was so accurate 😭

[@bobblehead67]

My teenage daughter's favorite band and I couldn't be happier about it.

[@LaraLinx]

My young adult daughter's *and* my favorite band! I turned her on to the boygenius EP, which came out right after she turned 21. We both fell hard for this band of amazing people. ♡♡♡

[@kayleewilliams2442]

julien saying 5000 little gay kids was all i ever needed in life

[@Isabella-bf4mo]

“Welcome Ladies”-they are literally boys… Phoebe recently said they have a group gender and they will growl at you if you call them girls or ladies😂😂😂

[@avabooth7122]

where did she say that lol? i need to know

[@dlalz]

@@avabooth7122 within 10 seconds she said “welcome ladies” noticed that immediately like…. those are the boys 🤨

[@imaginaryvintage2695]

Shoulda made her REPEAT

[@dominiqueeden]

Is “growl” a direct quote? Lol - I love the idea of these three walking around growling at people who misinterpret them.

[@Isabella-bf4mo]

@@dominiqueeden Actually I’m remembering it was “hiss” they will hiss at you. Direct quote from Phoebe- just can’t remember where she said it.

[@95Jul8]

it took me so long to realize that maxine is there

[@Panadolprim3ss]

The fact I didn’t even notice Maxine and thought phoebe was patting Lucy’s leg this whole time

[@millie_drums]

“like sediment gathering” god i love how julien speaks

[@MarxAviano]

You are too easily impressed and you should read more books.

[@Jawzay]

“Describe the fit” she’s so real

[@lose4851]

julien is very eloquent, looks like a person you want to talk to.

[@MarxAviano]

She's a self-absorbed cliche with scattered half baked ramblings. Phoebe and Lucy have actual unique personalities and speak with sophistication and grace.

@@tmolusablethat’s true, however they’re the boys, they’ve even said in an interview that (half jokingly) their group pronoun is ‘boys’. Ladies is just not them

First watching What's In My Bag and finding out Lucy is a Milo fan, now finding out she's a Billy Woods fan. Man, I love that lol

[@sageisfruity69]

i’m so in love with lucy

[@LaraLinx]

Me, too. I love her voice...both her speaking and singing ones. She and Phoebe really compliment each other vocally, then Julien's higher range layers up just right. But damn, Lucy is just so beautiful.

[@milfsloverr]

right she's sexy asf

[@lunatibbals]

why does julien sound like gru when she says little gay kids 😭

[@lowrezshez]

“My girl’s non commital and she says she’ll cook next time” & then jb pointing straight at Lucy

[@jocelynmariejewell1249]

Now I wanna know what line that was in favor

[@beck4557]

i was at a concert tonight and didn’t hear anything particularly loud, but i know i most definitely sang ‘how long do i have until/i’ve spent up everyone’s goodwill?’ and ‘who put me in your way to find?/what right had you not to let me die?’ louder than the rest. then again, those make sense to sing loudly, so i’m not really sure

[@kristaunger7041]

I was at the Phoenix, Arizona show on 6/6 and did not hear anything particularly loud during “Favor” either. If anything, I really enjoyed how quiet it was, as I could hear her so well (unlike some songs where she was nearly drowned out at parts). I am mostly silent when she sings, as I am both in awe and don’t ever want to hear my own voice over hers in my audio recordings. 😂 I mouth along the lyrics, and also really love that line “what right had you not to let me die,” as it is a bit reminiscent for me of some of my other favorite lyrics of hers from “Rejoice”: And somebody's listening at night/the ghosts of my friends when I pray/asking, "Why did You let them leave And then make me stay?" 🥹 I don’t know if she noticed that my eyes were glued to her almost the entire night, but I got her guitar pick that she used for “Favor.” 😭 She tossed it right after, just before they started “Graceland Too.” I absolutely lost it. Through tears I mumble, “whatever she wants.” One of the most special concert moments of my life-I think I lived through it to get to that moment. 🖤🌈

[@cowboylikeana]

i think its probably the “letting yourself be tender/well you couldnt make me do it” lines

[@jackhollenbach]

Excellent interview. Such a joy watching someone like Julie be real and warm and funny and loose with this awesome group.
