Just a day after announcing Lost Weekend, her first solo album in six years, Phoebe Bridgers has unveiled its lead single, “Lost Boys,” offering the first glimpse into the long-awaited follow-up. The song finds Bridgers surrounded by a familiar circle of collaborators, with Alex G contributing additional production, drums, and even a voice memo, while her boygenius bandmates Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker lend harmonies.
The accompanying video, directed by Lance Oppenheim and Pablo Rochat, stars Bridgers alongside Skyler Gisondo and The Knights of Debracey Productions, matching the song's dreamlike atmosphere with surreal, understated visuals. Watch it below.
As with much of Bridgers' work, the track is anchored by an impressive cast of musicians. Longtime collaborators Christian Lee Hutson, Marshall Vore, and Harrison Whitford all return, joined by producer and multi-instrumentalist Blake Mills, mandolin virtuoso Chris Thile, Bright Eyes' Nate Walcott on trumpet, and several additional contributors who flesh out the song's richly textured arrangement.
Lost Weekend arrives August 14 via Dead Oceans. In support of the album, Bridgers will embark on her recently announced phone-free North American and European tour beginning in September, inviting audiences to experience the new material without the distraction of screens. Check out the video for “Lost Boys” and the full list of tour dates below.
