Phoebe Bridgers Gives Us Medieval Magic With ‘Lost Boys’

Phoebe Bridgers released "Lost Boys" on June 21, 2024, the first single from her upcoming project "Lost Weekend." The track features a notable collaboration list, including Jack Antonoff, Alex G, and her boygenius bandmates Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker. The song's production and lyrical themes evoke a medieval atmosphere, a departure from some of Bridgers' previous work. "Lost Boys" offers a glimpse into the sonic direction of "Lost Weekend," which is anticipated by fans following Bridgers' critically acclaimed 2020 album "Punisher." The involvement of Antonoff, a frequent collaborator with many prominent artists, suggests a polished and potentially chart-topping sound. The inclusion of Dacus and Baker further solidifies the project's connection to the successful indie supergroup boygenius, while Alex G brings his distinct lo-fi aesthetic. This release marks a significant moment for Bridgers' solo career, building anticipation for the full "Lost Weekend" project.
