Phoebe Bridgers fans may have felt lost without any new solo music in six years, but finally, the indie-rock singer-songwriter is calling them home.
As announced Wednesday (June 24), Bridgers’ third solo albumis titled Lost Weekend and will arrive on Aug. 14. The first song from the project will drop Thursday (June 25), according to the boygenius band member’s Instagram post about the 16-track LP, where she also reveals its phantasmic black, blue and green cover art with an abstract rendering of her face at the center.
Bridgers hasn’t released an album of her own since 2020’s Punisher, which reached No. 43 on the Billboard 200, her highest peak to date. Before that came debut LP Stranger in the Alps, which bowed at No. 82 on the chart.

Over the past six years, the four-time Grammy winner has instead kept busy with an opening stint on Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour — on which she and the pop superstar would also sing their Red (Taylor’s Version) duet, “Nothing New,” during the main set — as well as her work with Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker. The trio unveiled its first full-length boygenius album, The Record, in 2023, reaching No. 4 on the U.S. albums chart.
More recently, though, Bridgers kept largely under the radar and was rarely seen in public — until she began her run of secret pop-up performances across the United States this spring. The run culminated in a final show at Madison Square Garden in New York City, the proceeds of which went to the Immigration Bond Freedom Fund. During the set, she previewed a number of songs on Lost Weekend, switching back and forth from acoustic guitar to Mellotron.
Now, the California native is gearing up to hit the road again on a larger-scale trek kicking off Sept. 14 in Indianapolis. The Lost Tour will last through mid-December and take her across the U.S., Canada and Europe.
