boygenius blasted Ron DeSantis at glorious Coachella set (video, setlist)

After warming up in Pomona, CA on Wednesday, boygenius played Coachella’s Outdoor Theater on Saturday night (4/16). Like at Wednesday’s show, Thin Lizzy’s “The Boys Are Back in Town” played over the PA before they made their entrance, and they did a rendition of The Record opener “Without You Without Them” before emerging onstage, this time in matching suit jackets and ties, for the rocking “$20.” Their set included most of the new album, and a few songs from their debut EP, including “Me & My Dog,” which got one of the biggest receptions of the night. The trio’s harmonies sounded glorious and their moments of onstage interaction were the highlights of the set, especially during the finale of “Salt in the Wound.”

Introducing the band, which includes Melia Duterte, aka Jay Som, playing “everything,” Lucy Dacus blasted new laws in Missouri and Florida restricting access to gender-affirming care for transgender people, and Phoebe Bridgers chimed in with “abortion is amazing” and “fuck Ron DeSantis,” all of which was met with approval from the crowd.

Watch video clips from boygenius’ weekend one Coachella set, and see the setlist, below.

boygenius also appeared at day one of Coachella, where they joined MUNA onstage for “Silk Chiffon.” Watch video of that below, as well.

After both weekends of Coachella, boygenius’ tour resumes in June and continues through the summer, including Re:SET shows with Clairo, Dijon, and Bartees Strange, and shows with Carly Rae Jepsen, Broken Social Scene, Claud, and illuminati hotties. See all dates below.
