Listen to Phoebe Bridgers’ New Song “Lost Boys”

Save StorySave this storySave StorySave this storyThe Phoebe Bridgers news cycle continues apace. After yesterday’s announcement of Lost Weekend, her first solo album in six years, Bridgers has unveiled “Lost Boys,” its lead single and her first solo song in four. In the Lance Oppenheim and Pablo Rochat-directed music video, she plays an elf surrounded by knights in a Renaissance-style video game come to life. Watch it below.

Bridgers is joined by a ton of special guests on “Lost Boys,” including Julien Baker, Lucy Dacus, and Caroline Shaw on vocals; Alex G on drums and voice memo; Jack Antonoff on electric guitar, synths, drums, and vocoder; Bright Eyes’ Nate Walcott on trumpets; Blake Mills on synths; Chris Thile on mandolin; and Christian Lee Hutson on acoustic guitar, among others. The song was produced by Bridgers, Tony Berg, Ethan Gruska, and Antonoff, and features additional production by Alex G.

Bridgers’ successor to Punisher is due August 14 via Dead Oceans, a month before she heads out on the Lost Tour. The album follows her stint with Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker in Boygenius; shortly before that band’s 2023 return, Bridgers released her last solo single, a charity cover of the Handsome Family’s Christmas song “So Much Wine.”

Bridgers teed up the new album with several surprise pop-up shows, including one at Madison Square Garden. Each concert had a strict no-phones policy, including that stadium set, to prevent footage from leaking. She is also set to appear in Primetime, a new A24 film starring Robert Pattinson that chronicles Chris Hansen’s infamous 2000s TV program To Catch a Predator.
