Phoebe Bridgers has released a new music video for ‘I Can’t Wait‘ directed by Chris Maggio and Pablo Rochat. It arrives alongside her much anticipated third album, Lost Weekend, on Dead Oceans. The video – the second to be released for the album – takes a bug-eyed view of a day in Los Angeles.
Lost Weekend sees Bridgers at the height of her powers, a master, taking nothing more seriously than her craft of songwriting, refining here many of the motifs that distinguished her work previously on this new album that’s otherwise, everywhere, full of surprises.
Throughout the week, the album was previewed in full inside planetariums around the world. Each listening session paired the album with one of two original visual accompaniments: a custom dome show, designed by renowned night-sky photographer Babak Tafreshi, or a unique immersive laser show designed by Laser Fantasy. Both presentations offered their own atmospheric perspective that turned the album’s first listen into a shared sonic and visual experience.
Lost Weekend is the first Phoebe Bridgers album since her multi-GRAMMY-nominated sophomore album, Punisher, was released at the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic. Much was made of Bridgers’ wise-for-her-years virtuosity when her lauded debut, Stranger in the Alps was released, about a month after the artist’s 23rd birthday; and Punisher was, it seems, universally praised as something of a promise-made-good-on, a clever, alluring, measured yet thrilling, ultimately very memorable album from an artist whose meteoric talent as a songwriter had been suddenly matched by her road-honed band and their richer, more daring accompaniment.
