- Phoebe Bridgers and Boygenius bandmates Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus filmed a live session for A24's Sound Check at Cherry Lane Theater series, performing "Lost Boys" and "Haunted" together, plus the Primetime soundtrack track "On Video" with Ethan Gruska.
- Filmmaker Lance Oppenheim directed the session at the titular West Village off-Broadway theater, shot after Bridgers' three-night Barclays Center run in September.
- The Barclays residency was part of her ongoing "phones-free" Lost Tour, during which Dacus and Baker joined her on stage for "Not Strong Enough" and "Cool About It" on opening night.
- Bridgers also appears in Conor Oberst's directorial debut "Invitation 13," which premiered in Los Angeles in September.
- The U.S. leg of the Lost Tour concludes this month with opener Alex G, after which Bridgers heads to the UK and Europe with former Black Country, New Road frontman Isaac Wood.
- Earlier episodes of A24's Sound Check series featured Tame Impala and Blood Orange, placing Bridgers in a curated indie-talent lineup.
- Oppenheim's next project, "You Can See Everything," co-directed with Nathan Fielder, follows Elizabeth Holmes' final days before reporting to prison for fraud and hits theaters October 16.
Why it matters: Bridgers is channeling post-album momentum into a string of cross-disciplinary partnerships — A24's film series, Oppenheim's Primetime, Oberst's directorial debut — while the Lost Tour expands from the U.S. into the UK and Europe with Isaac Wood, positioning her as the connective thread between indie rock and indie film this season.
