Boygenius announce new film directed by Kristen Stewart
Boygenius are releasing a new film directed by Kristen Stewart tonight (March 31) – get all the details on The Film below.
The new movie from Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers and Lucy Dacus will be released alongside the trio’s highly anticipated debut album ‘The Record’, and comes after Stewart was touted to direct three of the band’s music videos.
The Film will land at 5am BST on April 1 (that’s midnight on the East Coast of the USA), and fans can wait for the premiere and see its poster below.
‘The Record’ is also out at midnight, with a five-star NME review saying: “This debut is a gorgeous testament to what can happen when you allow yourself to fully be seen. Though each of the album’s 12 tracks could have fit nicely on one of their personal records, their work together takes on a brighter bolder existence, enabling them to light up individually and together at the same time.
“Bridgers, Dacus and Baker did the tedious work of getting to know each other artistically and collaboratively and then poured what they found out into the world. Now, we as listeners, get to benefit.”
This week, Boygenius also announced details of a full headline tour of North America for 2023 – see the full list of dates below and buy tickets here.
