By editorial board on March 3, 2024

The trio – comprising Dacus, Phoebe Bridgers and Julien Baker – picked up the International Group Of The Year statue at the 2024 ceremony, beating Foo Fighters, Blink-182, Paramore and Gabriels.

 

Accepting the band’s BRIT in a video message, Dacus said: “We wanna thank our label Polydor for making this possible. Long live Boygenius.” Bridgers added: “Thank you so much.”

“This day marks six years since [Dacus’ 2018 album] ‘Historian’ was released, a year since [Boygenius single] ‘Not Strong Enough’ came out, a month since the Grammys, and BG won a BRIT Award today, so I’m feelin reflective and wanted to say thank you to everyone that cares about my music and Boygenius,” she wrote.

"We're going away for the foreseeable future," the band reportedly said during an acoustic show in Los Angeles

The trio of Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker supposedly made the announcement during a pair of “secret” acoustic gigs in Los Angeles last night, February 1. While the band have yet to confirm the hiatus on social media, they reportedly told the audience that they are “going away for the foreseeable future.”

At the time of publishing, video footage of the announcement has not been shared on social media.

The trio’s second show of the night was captured and shared on Instagram via fan account Boygenius Source, and can be seen here. On X (formerly Twitter), Boygenius Source shared that Lucy Dacus said it was the band’s “last show” and that they were “feeling it”.

Later, as they began playing the final song on the setlist, ‘Not Strong Enough’, Dacus reportedly said that they were playing their last song, before Baker clarified “not EVER,” suggesting that the band will be back together someday.
