Phoebe Bridgers is back in the public eye. Last week (June 25), the trailblazing alternative artist shared that Lost Weekend, her first solo album in six years, will be released August 14. Bridgers has also unveiled “Lost Boys,” its lead single and her first solo song in four years.
In the Lance Oppenheim and Pablo Rochat-directed music video for the new track, Bridgers plays an elf surrounded by knights in a Renaissance-style video game come to life. The Runescape-esque visual also features Superman actor Skyler Gisondo as a gas station attendant who joins Bridgers' club.

Bridgers is joined by a ton of special guests on “Lost Boys,” including her boygenius bandmates Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus, 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. According to Pitchfork, The song was produced by Bridgers, Tony Berg, Ethan Gruska, and Antonoff, and features additional production by Alex G.
The announcement of Lost Weekend comes soon after Bridgers made headlines for her surprise show at Madison Square Garden on June 4. The phoneless, acoustic-style set featured seven new songs, tickets ranging from $1 to $20, and proceeds benefiting the Community Justice Exchange’s Immigration Bond Freedom Fund. Bridgers will be engaging on a world tour soon after Lost Weekend is released. Titled "The Lost Tour," the trek will run from September to December and will enforce the MSG show's strict phone-free policy with the help of Yondr pouches.
Bridgers' last album, Punisher, was released back in the summer of 2020. After that, she teamed up with Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker for the return of boygenius. Shortly before that band’s 2023 comeback, Bridgers released her last solo single: a charity cover of the Handsome Family’s Christmas song “So Much Wine.”
