Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus—both together as Boygenius and apart as solo artists—already command fervent love from fans who have bordered on frenzied in the past.

Death is a cruel aspect of life. The loss of an elder tends to be easier to stomach—we can attempt to rationalise the hole we have been left with. “It was their time,” we say.

The grief cuts deeper, not only because of the cruelty that accompanies a premature departure, but also because it focuses our minds on our own mortality.
