Phoebe Bridgers
Phoebe Bridgers is a singer-songwriter from Pasadena, CA. Her prior solo work includes her debut, Strangers in the Alps (2017), and a second LP, Punisher (2020), released at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Beloved in equal measure for her deceptively subtle voice and her meticulous, incisive lyrics, she is today, at 31, one of the most respected rock stars in the game.
Bridgers was last seen on stage with boygenius, her supergroup with best friends Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker, collecting their Grammy Awards for 2023’s the record, including ‘Best Alternative Music Album’ and both ‘Best Rock Song’ and ‘Best Rock Performance’ for their song “Not Strong Enough.” Bridgers, it turns out, left the building as the evening’s most awarded artist; she won her fourth Grammy, ‘Best Pop Duo/Group Performance,’ for the song “Ghost in the Machine,” a feature on SZA’s SOS. Before that, a stint of dates opening for Taylor Swift on The Eras Tour. And before that, for nearly two years, her solo Reunion Tour, featuring three sold-out legs in North America, thirty shows in Europe, and a finale of dates in South America, Asia, and Australia.
Online and on television, she delivered some of the sharpest and most memorable filmed performances of the last few years, among them NPR’s Tiny Desk and Saturday Night Live, and since her last solo record, she’s released a number of one-off singles, covers, and collaborations with Paul McCartney, MUNA, Bright Eyes, The 1975, Lorde, Taylor Swift, The National, and more.
She’s also set to appear, later this year, in A24’s Primetime, starring alongside Robert Pattinson in the feature-film debut from director Lance Oppenheim (Some Kind of Heaven, Ren Faire).
