Julien Baker has performed with Jasmine.4.t at SXSW 2025, delivering a cover of System Of A Down’s ‘Toxicity’.
The performance, which took place on 14th March, saw Baker providing guitar and backing vocals alongside Jasmine.4.t on lead vocals and guitar, accompanied by a violinist. The collaboration continued with a performance of ‘Skin On Skin’.
Baker’s SXSW appearances also included a joint set with Torres on 12th March, where they debuted ‘Showdown’, a new track from their forthcoming country album ‘Send A Prayer My Way’. The song features shared vocals from both artists, with Baker on acoustic guitar, accompanied by string arrangements.
The track marks the fifth preview of their collaborative country project, following ‘Sugar In The Tank’, ‘Sylvia’, ‘Tuesday’, and ‘Bottom Of A Bottle’. Their partnership began in 2024 when Torres opened for Baker, leading to joint festival appearances and the creation of a dedicated website.
Baker’s recent work includes her involvement with Boygenius, who released their second album ‘The Record’ in 2023, while her latest solo album ‘Little Oblivions’ was released in 2021. Torres released her sixth album ‘What An Enormous Room’ in January 2024.
