Earlier this year, Jasmine Cruickshank, the Manchester musician who records under the name jasmine.4.t, became the first British artist signed to Phoebe Bridgers’ Saddest Factory label.Along with her boygenius bandmates Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus, Bridgers produced “Skin On Skin,” the single that jasmine.4.t released earlier this year.
That track turned out to be an early taste of jasmine.4.t’s forthcoming debut album You Are The Morning, which arrives early next year and which was produced entirely by boygenius.To make You Are The Morning, jasmine.4.t and her backing band, whose members are all trans, flew to Los Angeles.
The members of boygenius produced the record at the famed Sound City Studios over 12 days.The boygenius members contribute some backup vocals, as does the Trans Chorus Of Los Angeles.
