The full credits for Phoebe Bridgers‘s latest album Lost Weekend have been shared, revealing a star-studded list of collaborators who helped shape the singer-songwriter’s third studio effort. Released on August 14, the record marks her first solo project in six years and has already garnered significant critical acclaim.
The album features contributions from an array of high-profile artists, including Jack Antonoff, Alex G, Blake Mills, and Christian Lee Hutson. Bridgers’ partner, Bo Burnham, also makes notable appearances across the project. Furthermore, the record sees the return of several frequent collaborators, including Bright Eyes frontman Conor Oberst, as well as her boygenius bandmates Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus.
One of the more intriguing credits on the album is the inclusion of a vocalist named Son-John Johnson on the tracks ‘Kill Me’ and ‘I Can’t Wait’. Fans have been quick to speculate that the moniker is an alias for Geese frontman Cameron Winter.
The production credits for Lost Weekend are equally impressive, with Bridgers working alongside Tony Berg, Ethan Gruska, Jack Antonoff, and Alex G to craft the album’s distinct sound. The record has been described as a deeply personal reckoning, with NME‘s five-star review noting that it serves as a stirring exploration of the romantic and familial ties that have defined the artist’s journey.
The album’s tracklist features a diverse range of instrumentation, from string arrangements by Rob Moose to contributions from musicians like Chris Thile and Greg Leisz. The song ‘Lost Weekend’ itself notably contains a sample of “Notjustmoreidlechatter” by Paul Lansky” by Paul Lansky.
