Phoebe Lucille Bridgers (born August 17, 1994) is an American singer-songwriter from Los Angeles, California.Known for making both indie folk and indie rock music, she has to date released two solo albums, Stranger in the Alps and Punisher. In addition to her solo work, she has released records as part of two side-projects: boygenius with Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus, and Better Oblivion Community Center with Conor Oberst.Not to be confused with Phoebe Waller-Bridge — who, to confuse matters further, directed one of Bridgers' music videos. | |

Phoebe Bridgers (Music) / int_33987735 | comment |
Disposing of a Body: Implied in "Garden Song", where she suspiciously plants a garden after her skinhead neighbor goes missing, implying she killed him. | |

Album Closure | |
Phoebe Bridgers (Music) / int_47b97b31 | comment |
Album Closure: Punisher concludes with "I Know the End." It's the longest song on the album by over a minute and shifts into pseudo-Heavy Metal for the outro, which is about the apocalypse. | |

Bookends | |
Phoebe Bridgers (Music) / int_5313c266 | comment |
Book Ends: On Punisher, the melody for the outro of the final track "I Know the End" is reminiscent of the melody of the first track on it, "DVD Menu", bringing the album full circle. In addition, on Stranger in the Alps, the opening track is "Smoke Signals", and the closing track is "Smoke Signals (Reprise)" which is a short ~30 second track of Phoebe humming over the melody to "Smoke Signals." | |

The Diss Track: "Motion Sickness" serves as one to Ryan Adams, who she alleged abused her while they were in a relationship. She also includes a dig at Eric Clapton in "Moon Song" (mainly due to her belief that he is "a famous racist"): | |

Phoebe Bridgers (Music) / int_6070670f | comment |
Complete-the-Quote Title: Her first album Stranger in the Alps is named after a line from The Big Lebowski ("Son, this is what happens when you fuck a stranger in the ass!") which was bowdlerised for TV as "...find a stranger in the alps!". The movie takes place almost entirely in Pasadena, CA, where Phoebe grew up. | |

Skeleton Motif: She wears a skeleton suit in many of her performances, her music videos, and her "Punisher" album art. She even arrived at the 2021 Grammys in a black dress with a jewel-encrusted skeleton pattern from top to bottom. | |

Celebrity Song | |
Phoebe Bridgers (Music) / int_796bd3 | comment |
Celebrity Song: While never mentioned in the actual lyrics, she has stated that she wrote the song "Punisher" as a tribute to Elliott Smith, someone she has cited as a major inspiration. Similarly, "Chelsea" is written from the point-of-view of Nancy Spungen, reflecting on her toxic relationship (and possible murder) with Sid Vicious; the title of the song coming from the Chelsea Hotel where she died. | |

Perishing Alt-Rock Voice: She uses this in many of her songs, though less so in the more uptempo tracks (and, of course, this trope is entirely absent from that Careful with That Axe closing section to "I Know the End", and famously in "Me And My Dog"). | |

Lyrical Dissonance: Most of her songs are pretty sad, even her more upbeat ones. "Kyoto" in particular is an uptempo rock song about imposter syndrome, feeling lost while on tour, and her difficult relationship with her father. | |
