Black Vinyl LP

Bridgers wrote her first song at age 11, spent her adolescence at open mic nights, and busked through her teenage years at farmers markets in L.A. By age 20, she’d caught the ear of Ryan Adams, who listened to her perform her song “Killer” in his studio; he invited her to come back and record it the next day. The session blossomed into the three-song Killer EP, released to much acclaim on Adams’ Pax-Am label in 2015. Since then, Bridgers has toured or played with Conor Oberst, Julien Baker, City And Colour, Violent Femmes, Mitski, Television and Blake Babies, among others.

This full-length debut, Stranger In The Alps, encompasses weeping strings and Twin Peaks twangs of opening track, “Smoke Signals,” to the simple heartbreak of “Funeral” and melancholic crescendo of “Scott Street.” Stranger In The Alps is a swooningly beautiful record with a gothic heart.
