Phoebe Bridgers is the ultimate boundary-pusher in indie music
Taylor Swift has called Phoebe Bridgers’ latest album “a huge success in every way”, and we couldn’t agree more. With her razor-sharp songwriting and melancholic sound, American singer-songwriter and producer Phoebe Bridgers has carved out an indie universe entirely her own. Armed with an acoustic guitar and a love for all things dark, quirky and atmospheric, she moves effortlessly between intimate folk and noisy indie.
Her 2017 debut album, Stranger in the Alps, introduced breakthrough tracks like ‘Motion Sickness’ and ‘Funeral’, while its 2020 follow-up, Punisher, cemented her success with massive hits such as ‘Kyoto’ and ‘I Know the End’. She has joined forces with artists including Taylor Swift, SZA, The Killers and The 1975 – not to mention boygenius, the supergroup she forms alongside Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus.
This year, she made a triumphant return with Lost Weekend, her first solo album in six years. The album is packed with raw emotion as she explores everything from the death of her father and past relationships to the rush of falling in love again. This time, it all unfolds in a more colourful and unpredictable musical universe, while still retaining the dry, dark humour and razor-sharp lyrics that make Phoebe Bridgers unmistakably Phoebe Bridgers.
Get ready for Phoebe Bridgers to fill Eskelunden with melancholy, dark humour and world-class indie music.
