boygenius showed why they’re deserving of seven Grammy nominations with a pair of thrilling performances on this weekend’s episode of Saturday Night Live.
The dynamic trio of Julien Baker, Lucy Dacus, and Phoebe Bridgers showcased their debut full-length, the record, with renditions of “Not Strong Enough” and “Satanist.”
In an apparent nod to The Beatles’ famed appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show, boygenius and their backing band wore matching black suits and ties. Speaking of their backing band, Jay Som played bass on “Not Strong Enough” and percussion on “Satanist.”
