Lost Weekend: Album Announcement and Release Details
Phoebe Bridgers announced her third solo album, Lost Weekend, for release on August 14, 2026 via Dead Oceans. The 16-track record will appear on vinyl with a blurry, blue-toned portrait on the cover. The label’s statement says the album will “refine many of the motifs that distinguished her work” while offering “surprises.”
Phoneless Pop-Up Shows and Promotion
Bridgers began a phoneless pop-up tour in early May—reported as May 7 or May 8—visiting small venues and ending with a sold-out Madison Square Garden show on June 4. Proceeds supported the Immigration Bond Freedom Fund. The concerts previewed new material noted for a fuller acoustic and atmospheric sound.
Lost Tour Schedule and Opening Acts
The Lost Tour launches in Indianapolis, with the opening night listed as September 14 in one source and September 15 in another. The North American leg includes 45 arena dates, ending November 1 in Inglewood, California, before continuing through mid-December. A 14-date European leg follows, with opening acts Alex G, Isaac Wood (also supporting London O2 Arena shows), and Anaïs.
Data & Statistics
Album release – Aug 14 2026; lead single – June 25 2026; 16 tracks; Lost Tour – 45 North American + 14 European arena dates; prior solo albums peaked at No. 82 (*Stranger in the Alps*) and No. 43 (*Punisher*) on Billboard 200; four Grammy nominations for *Punisher* and six for *The Record* with boygenius.
Official Statements & Responses
Bridgers said the new album refines her signature motifs while adding surprises. Dead Oceans confirmed the August 14 launch and pre-order availability. The tour announcement highlighted a large arena itinerary and the continuation of the “mystery and loneliness” aesthetic that informs her visual work.
