It’s a prosperous time to be a Phoebe Bridgers fan. After four years of relative inactivity, Bridgers returned with her third album, a tour, and a substantial role in longtime friend Lance Oppenheim’s new film Primetime. Now, she and Oppenheim have reunited for a filmed live performance for A24’s Sound Check at Cherry Lane Theater series, which captures Bridgers playing “Lost Boys” and “Haunted” with Boygenius bandmates Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus, plus Primetime soundtrack song “On Video” with Ethan Gruska. Check it out below.
Bridgers and Oppenheim shot the session at the titular West Village off-Broadway theater after her three-night run at Barclays Center in September. The residency was part of her ongoing phones-free Lost Tour; she brought Dacus and Baker out on stage to play “Not Strong Enough” and “Cool About It” on the first night. Bridgers’ appearance on the series follows episodes with Tame Impala and Blood Orange, among others. It’s not even her first short film this season: she appears in Conor Oberst’s directorial debut Invitation 13, which premiered in Los Angeles in September.
Once Bridgers and her opener Alex G wrap up the U.S. leg of the Lost Tour this month, she’ll head to the UK and Europe for a run with support from former Black Country, New Road frontman Isaac Wood. Oppenheim, meanwhile, has another big premiere coming up: You Can See Everything, the documentary he co-directed with Nathan Fielder that follows disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes’ final days with her family before reporting to prison for fraud. That hits theaters on October 16.
