Phoebe Bridgers has a new song on the way, titled “Sidelines.” It arrives with Hulu’s serial adaptation of Sally Rooney’s novel Conversations With Friends, and it’s out at midnight on Friday (April 15). Watch a trailer for the show below.
“Sidelines” is the first new original material from Bridgers since she released Punisher in 2020, which she followed with the Copycat Killer EP later that year. After collaborating with Conor Oberst for a re-work of Bright Eyes’ “Haligh, Haligh, a Lie, Haligh,” Bridgers joined Bright Eyes for a take on Elliott Smith‘s “St. Ides Heaven.” She put her spin on Tom Waits’ “Day After Tomorrow” as a fundraiser for the Local Integration & Family Empowerment Division of the International Institute of Los Angeles last year.
Also recently, Bridgers released an acoustic version of Punisher’s “Chinese Satellite” for Secretly Canadian’s 25th anniversary, and announced a monthly radio show on SiriusXM. After performing at Coachella this weekend, she’ll tour North America and Europe through the end of August.
