Bridgers was a member of various groups while still in high school, including Einstein's Dirty Secret and Sloppy Jane, and frequently played shows around Los Angeles as a solo act. [10] [11] After deciding not to attend college to focus on her career, her growing presence in the L.A. music scene led to her befriending producer Tony Berg, who began working with her on her first album for free. [12] Playing in an Apple commercial with Sloppy Jane had given her some financial security, so she planned to complete her record and then sell it to a label, rather than attempting to get signed first. This allowed her much more time and creative freedom to create what would become Stranger in the Alps . [13] Around this time, Bridgers met American singer-songwriter Ryan Adams through mutual collaborators, and he put out her EP Killer on his label PAX AM. [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] Bridgers also supported Julien Baker on her 2016 tour of the East Coast. [19] [20]

In January 2017, Bridgers released the single "Smoke Signals" and opened for Conor Oberst on his European tour. [21] The two had met the previous summer at a secret showcase, organized by Oberst at the Bootleg Theater in Los Angeles. He and his Bright Eyes bandmate, Mike Mogis, contributed vocals and production to Stranger in the Alps. [22] Bridgers joined The Joy Formidable and Ryan Adams for select dates on their respective U.S. tours before playing at South by Southwest in March 2017. [21] In June 2017, Bridgers signed to independent label Dead Oceans.

She released her debut studio album, Stranger in the Alps , in September 2017 to critical acclaim. [23] [24] The album was produced by Tony Berg, Ethan Gruska and Rob Moose, all of whom would become consistent collaborators with Bridgers. [25] To promote the album, Bridgers performed on CBS This Morning and the NPR Tiny Desk. [26] Numerous songs from the record were featured in television productions throughout 2018, including Switched at Birth , [27] Castle , [28] Burden of Truth , [29] Lethal Weapon [30] and Trinkets , [31] among others.

Bridgers has been referred to as a "serial collaborator", and has either been featured on or co-released tracks with: Lord Huron, Fiona Apple, Matt Berninger and the National, Andrew Bird, Manchester Orchestra, the 1975, Maggie Rogers, Kid Cudi, Taylor Swift, and SZA, among others. In addition, she has participated in full-album projects with Conor Oberst, Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus. [32] [33]

[34] They released three songs in August 2018 and subsequently announced an eponymous EP, which was released on October 26, 2018, to widespread acclaim.

On December 5, 2018, Bridgers released a Spotify Singles session recorded at Spotify Studios NYC featuring a performance of "Scott Street" and a cover of the Cure's "Friday I'm in Love". [39] [40]

Bridgers and Conor Oberst announced the formation of their band, Better Oblivion Community Center, on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in January 2019. They released their debut album later that month through Dead Oceans. [41] The band appeared on CBS This Morning, and Bridgers appeared for the third time on NPR's Tiny Desk series. [42] Bob Boilen, creator of the Tiny Desk Concerts, said of their album: "It's that rare musical partnership where each injects vibrancy into the other's creative side." [43]

Artistry and themes

Bridgers' musical style has been variously categorized as indie rock, [93] [94] indie folk, [95] [96] emo-folk, [97] [98] indie emo [99] and indie pop. [100] It often centers acoustic guitar, and incorporates atmospheric strings, production and electronic instrumentation. Her music has been described as "anxious", "melancholy" and "haunting". Themes include death, trauma, therapy, depression and strained relationships, "undercut by her dry wit" and "straightforward delivery." [101] [3] [102] Several of Bridgers' songs are about personal issues. For example, "Kyoto" was inspired by her relationship with her father, while "Motion Sickness" and "ICU" are about past breakups. [103] [101] Her complex storytelling and use of evocative imagery, such as in "Garden Song", have also been commended. [104] [105] [102]

Bridgers has cited Elliott Smith as one of her favorite artists and the biggest influence on her songwriting and production style. [3] [106] [107] Her song "Punisher" explores her meeting Smith if he were still alive. [3] Other musical influences include bluegrass music, Bright Eyes, the Replacements, Blake Mills, Tom Waits, Avril Lavigne, the Beatles, Jackson Browne, Taylor Swift and Nine Inch Nails. [108] [109] [105] [110] [111] Her music often features a wide variety of popular culture references [112] — the writing of author Joan Didion, ASMR videos, television series Fleabag, and true crime podcast My Favorite Murder were all influential in the making of Punisher. [101] [3] [113] [114]

Both of Bridgers' albums contain Halloween-themed visual motifs, with the album covers of Stranger in the Alps and Punisher containing ghost and skeleton imagery respectively. She is known for wearing variations of a skeleton onesie, inspired by her reported love for "creepy and corny stuff". [115] Her fans are often referred to as "Pharbs", a play on Nicki Minaj fans calling themselves "Barbs". [116]

Politics and activism

Bridgers is associated with American progressivism. [117] [118] Bridgers, Fiona Apple, and Matt Berninger released a cover of Simon and Garfunkel's 1966 song "7 O'Clock News/Silent Night" updated to reflect events in 2019, including the murder of Botham Jean, the opioid epidemic in the United States, and the testimony of Mick Mulvaney in President Donald Trump's first impeachment trial. [119]

In 2020, Bridgers expressed support for and encouraged people to give donations to racial justice charities via her website and called for the abolition of police during Punisher's release amid the George Floyd protests [120] and released her and Maggie Rogers' cover of "Iris" as a single specifically to raise money for Stacey Abrams' Fair Fight Action, having vowed to release the cover if Trump lost the 2020 United States presidential election. [52] [53]

In October 2020, Bridgers performed as part of the virtual fundraiser festival "Village of Love" benefiting Planned Parenthood in Los Angeles and New York. [121] At SXSW in 2022, Bridgers and Caleb Hearon criticized Greg Abbott's position on gender-affirming care for children and invited progressive politician Greg Casar to the stage. [122] At a May 2022 concert in Florida, following the passage of Florida House Bill 1557, Bridgers repeatedly expressed disdain for Ron DeSantis. [123]

Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022, Bridgers shared a post from another account on Instagram which mourned the victims of colonialism during the monarch's reign. [124]

While performing with Boygenius at Coachella in April 2023, the band spoke in support of trans rights following bills proposed in states like Florida and Missouri. [125] Bridgers also added "And abortion rocks, and fuck Ron DeSantis." [126]

Bridgers advocates for abortion legality. In an interview with Teen Vogue in 2022, she expressed disdain for the overturning of Roe v. Wade . [127]

After winning multiple awards at the 66th Grammy Awards, Bridgers called out Neil Portnow, ex-president of the Recording Academy, criticizing his remarks towards women musical artists and highlighting accusations he engaged in sexual violence. [128] In closing her statement she said "to him, I'd like to say I know you're not dead yet, but when you are, rot in piss." [129] Also at the 66th Grammy Awards, Bridgers' red carpet outfit, coordinated with the other members of Boygenius, featured Artists4Ceasefire pins calling for a ceasefire in the midst of the Israeli invasion of Gaza. [130]

Personal life

Bridgers and American musician Ryan Adams started a relationship in 2014. [131] They broke up at an unknown date. Her song "Motion Sickness" is about their relationship. [5] [132] [133] Bridgers and six other women accused Adams of emotional abuse in a 2019 report by The New York Times . [103] Bridgers later dated American musician Marshall Vore, who works as her touring drummer and has collaborated with her on other music; they co-wrote her single "ICU" about their relationship, [134] and remain friends and collaborators. [101] From 2020 until 2022, Bridgers was in a relationship with Irish actor Paul Mescal. [135] Since 2022, Bridgers has been dating comedian Bo Burnham. [136] [137]

Bridgers is bisexual, [138] which initially caused a rift between her and her mother, though they later reconciled and her mother became an advocate for LGBTQ+ rights. [139] Bridgers was a pescetarian for many years, something her school peers would mock her about, [140] but is now vegan. [141]

Bridgers has spoken about her struggles with depression and anxiety, for which she has sought therapy. [110] In May 2022, following the leaked Supreme Court draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade, she revealed that she had an abortion in October 2021 and said that everyone should have the right to do so. [142] [143]

Written by all three members of Boygenius—Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus—"Not Strong Enough" is an indie rock and folk rock song that incorporates elements of numerous genres. Its lyrics primarily concern mental illness and the effects it can have on relationships, with a focus on a narrator experiencing contradictory mental states of self-loathing and self-importance. Music critics also analyzed aspects of gender roles and feminism in the lyrics.
