Phoebe Bridgers has officially announced her long-awaited third studio album, Lost Weekend, set for release on August 14 via Dead Oceans, alongside confirmation that the record's first single will arrive tomorrow (June 26).

The announcement brings weeks of speculation to an end after the singer-songwriter teased new material during a run of surprise US pop-up shows, culminating in a sold-out performance at New York's Madison Square Garden. Bridgers used the intimate dates to debut several unreleased songs, fuelling rumours that a new era was imminent. Serving as the follow-up to 2020's acclaimed Punisher, Lost Weekend marks Bridgers' first solo album in five years. A press release describes the record as finding the songwriter at the "height of her powers", refining the emotional honesty and lyrical precision that have defined her work while delivering an album "full of surprises". While Bridgers has yet to reveal the title of tomorrow's single, the teaser marks fans' first official taste of the new record. Early live performances of unreleased material have suggested Lost Weekend will continue exploring the melancholy indie-folk sound that established Bridgers as one of the defining voices of her generation, while introducing fresh ideas and broader sonic ambition. The announcement follows an extraordinary run for the singer-songwriter. Since Punisher, Bridgers has won multiple Grammy Awards with boygenius alongside Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker, collaborated with artists including SZA and Taylor Swift, and established herself as one of alternative music's biggest live draws. Momentum behind the new era is already undeniable. Bridgers' recently announced North American, UK and European arena tour sold out within hours of tickets going on sale, with multiple dates—including two nights at London's O2 Arena—already fully booked. Lost Weekend arrives on August 14 via Dead Oceans, with the album's lead single landing tomorrow.
