Share

Indie rock fans, rejoice — and say a prayer to the ticket gods — because boygenius is heading to Toronto this summer for an outdoor show with hometown heroes Broken Social Scene.

On Tuesday, the supergroup made up of singer-songwriter Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker announced a North American tour in support of their upcoming debut album, which includes a stop at Toronto’s Budweiser Stage on June 21.

The summer solstice show will include support from Toronto indie rock collective Broken Social Scene and American bedroom pop artist Claud. Openers for other boygenius tour dates include Carly Rae Jepsen, Bartees Strange and Illuminati Hotties.

Fans looking for tickets can try their luck on March 29 at 10 a.m. using the presale code “NOTSTRONG”.

Tickets for the general public go on sale on March 31 at noon.

boygenius is set to release their highly-anticipated first full length project, titled “The Record” on Friday. The band previewed a few songs from the album back in January.

Comprised of three of indie rock’s most beloved female singer-songwriters, boygenius debuted back in 2018 with the release of their critically acclaimed, self-titled EP. Since then, Bridgers, Dacus and Baker have all gone on to release their own solo work.

Last summer, fans reported being “trampled” at a Phoebe Bridgers’ concert at Echo Beach in Toronto.

Broken Social, a sprawling Toronto music collective and one of the most influential indie rock bands of the past two decades, recently celebrated their 20th anniversary with a string of shows in Toronto and beyond.
