For the opening set, Baker provided vocal support along with plenty of energized headbanging. The guitarist has also previously collaborated with Touché Amoré by being featured on the band’s Stage Four album track “Skyscraper” back in 2016.

Touché Amoré‘s lead singer Jeremy Bolm shares his happiness in the following statement: “Oh, my god. Julien Baker everybody.” Then the vocalist gushed as Baker swiftly left the stage at the end of the song. When the guitarist left the stage Bolm stated:“Thanks to the personal heroes I’ve been copying for over a decade.”
