If you were lucky enough to score a ticket to the Billie Eilish tour stop in London at the Electric Ballroom, your experience is now officially priceless. Billie Eilish invited the one and only boygenius on stage to help her sing “when the party’s over” from her 2019 debut, WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO? Following a headlining slot at Reading & Leeds Fest, Eilish announced this now-famous intimate one-off show for August 29.

The TikTok account for Ticketmaster UK caught the whole performance featuring Julien Baker, Lucy Dacus, and Phoebe Bridgers. The “Not Strong Enough” band sweetly harmonized with Eilish on the solemn, fan-favorite single, adding a new layer of enchanting melancholy. It’s hard to imagine anyone in Electric Ballroom having dry eyes after this set. Check out the full performance below.

Attendees were stunned to see the crossover in person. One TikTok user said, “my life is ruined actually.” Another user said, “London effing won bro. There’s no way.” After the song, all four artists bowed down to each other and then went in for a group hug.

Along with boygenius, Eilish also invited English songwriter Labrinth on stage to join her. Eilish hopped on his track “Never Felt So Alone,” from his album Ends & Begins, and was also featured on HBO’s Euphoria season two. Not only did Labrinth bring the house down at this intimate London venue but he also joined Eilish on the 2023 Coachella stage to perform the lo-fi hit. 

If you’re located in the UK, there’s another chance to see Eilish when she plays Electric Picnic in Stradbally, Ireland in September. She will also be playing Music Midtown in Atlanta in September as well. Who knows, she might be bringing more special guests with her for these festivals, too.
